My Top-40 Covers Artist Credentials

I'm available for private and public solo acoustic gigs, & can be contacted @ ashnewall at gmail dot com. I've been playing Top-40 covers music in bars since 2012, but my music career started long before, beginning in 1995 with the release of my first EP (of my own songs). In 2007, I started hosting Open Mic nights in Ottawa, which I continued through 2016 culminating in the monthly Rogers TV show (which I co-hosted), " Live On Elgin: Open Mic ". I also hosted my own highly successful Battle of the Bands series (at the Lunenburg Pub, Zaphod's Beeblebrox, and Live on Elgin) from 2012-17.
