About Ashley Mehta

Ashley Mehta melds pop, R&B, hip hop and electronic music creating an ebullient, yet unique sound. Coming from the Bay Area, Ashley stylistically approaches her sound with her culture in mind. As her roots are from both Filipino and Indian backgrounds, Ashley showcases her presence with pride in her cultures.

With just her acoustic guitar and drive for music, Ashley set her music career in motion by singing medleys and covers at different venues, ranging from high school events to local coffee shops. Beginning her freshman year of college, she shifted her focus to original music. She released her first single and she continues to release new music. Ashley continues to radiate the same positive energy kept throughout her sound.
