ASHLEIGH FLYNN has been praised by NYC's Village
Voice. This Oregon-by-way-of-Kentucky songwriter grew
up foot stomping along the Ohio River as the
steamboats and barges made their way to the muddy
Mississippi. She has released three critically
acclaimed independent CDs and her latest, American
Dream, is her finest to date. Last year she was
invited to play the giant Tennessee festival Bonnaroo.
