22yr old Country Music singer Ashley Ray embodies everything Nashville music execs look for in their would be super stars. She's got the looks, the guitar talent (that is to say she can strum most major chords in C tuning and maybe even throw in a capo every now and then), and she's cute at hell. Undoubtedly her greatest assest, however, is her potent vocals. Let's face it, this chick can sing. Still, the music business has ruined far greater artists before and by the sound of some of the tracks already posted on Ashley's myspace page it's clear her forthecoming studio album will almost certainly be over-produced. Is there any hope for a Beauty in the belly of the Nashville beast? If anyone stands a chance, let's hope it's Ashley.
