Biography
Andrew Ash is a genre-fusing, award-winning Pop Singer/Songwriter emerging from the queer-pop scene of Portland, Oregon. His ability to recreate instrumental soundscapes reminiscent of his 80’s inspirations such as Phil Collins, combined with his knack for writing heart-warming, catchy melodies for contemporary pop music with vintage feels, has helped him achieve many accolades, from some of his songs being featured on MTV’s ‘The Hills’ and ‘The Jersey Shore’ to performing on the main stage of Portland PDX Pride.
Andrew's 2022 single, “I Think I'm Ready for Love”, was a triumphant return to the music industry, following a decade-long hiatus. It won the Pop Smash Radio Award for Best Male Pop Song, received significant FM radio success throughout Latino and Western audiences, and garnered praise from numerous publications, Earmilk dubbed it a "powerhouse single," while Lost In The Nordics described it as "a gem from the inside out."
Andrew’s latest single “Outta My League” is a feel-good, synth-heavy 80’s inspired disco jam that is set on empowering listeners to take the leap of faith in love. The Italo Disco pop track, equipped with catchy melodic hooks and a massive guitar solo, showers any listener with the confidence to approach that new romantic interest in their life.
As a proud, openly gay man, who has struggled with dyslexia throughout his life, Andrew’s relationship with music offers a point for authentic expression and connection with others through his lived experience. That tenacity, playfulness and love for authenticity have connected with audiences, propelling Andrew into a rising pop sensation.
