Ashley Kutcher

Date TBA

Baltimore-born artist Ashley Kutcher asserts herself as a consummate storyteller with a lot to say. In 2019, Kutcher performed countless gigs in local bars in between attending college for nursing. Gaining traction with original music online, she answered a TikTok comment with “Love You From A Distance.” After taking over TikTok and inspiring millions of creatives, the song exploded to the tune of over 94m Spotify streams to date and paved the way for her first EP, One Eighty, in 2021. In its wake, she sold out her first two headlining shows in New York and Los Angeles. In 2022 she followed up her breakout year with smash sophomore EP Survive My Own Mind, which highlighted the sensitivity in her artistry and the delicacy of her vocals. After the EP, Ashley played for sold-out crowds on her second and longest-ever U.S. headlining tour. Ashley's debut album “House on The Water”, released January 2024, is a return to her roots as an acoustic singer/songwriter, with standout singles “Boy From Carolina”, “Matchbox”, and “Favorite Color” marrying hard hitting hooks with a more organic & country influenced sound.
