Ashley Cox Music Site

Bio:

.. .. I have been singing, songwriting, producing, promoting, and helping develop other artists for years. Maybe 10. I have the heart to take the abuse from the industry, peers, family, and am my own worst enemy of course. But aren't you? I love music-My mothers maiden name is Musick. My father played his first gig when he was eight I think-in a department store window. I've performed at Syracuse's most infamous Jazz Fest with my dad-a beloved figure in Syracuse' music scene, known most for his work on a Hammond B-3, but kills the keys everytime. I play a Yamaha P 120 electric piano, Korg Karma, acoustic Taylor guitar, hollow body Epiphone, through my Crate acoustic amp. I have a couple of nice PA systems, a 8 channel Mackie 808s 1200watt pa head, and a 12 channel Yamaha mixer with a couple power amps...oh jeez look at me getting technical and boring... Anyhow-Self equipt. always. I even wrap the cords correctly. I have many friends that work with me to make this Record Co. fly. Record company: I don't know-I have invested in a nice studio, protools digi 001, and am schooled in knowing how to use it well. (very qualified engineers on staff) I have lots of plug ins. weeeeee Receptive Records works with up and coming acts to help develop them into who they want to be musically. I've been doing this so long-I instinctually want to hold hands with others gettin up that hill. It isn't easy-with so many really great musicians out there just trying to get their music heard. But I'm in it for the long haul. I've been a full time musician for so long-I think about getting another job. I like to have enough money to do things like go to Boston for the weekend, or go crazy at Urban Outfitters. I would like to play more colleges, write more songs, climb more mountains...but for now-I'll just keep playing where and when I can, and check out the website if you care to find out more. ashleycoxmusic.com peace. ..........
