Music Minute - Dan Ashley: Outside Looking In

  "Outside Looking In" the new release by Americana, Rock, and Country artist, Dan Ashley, tells the story of an underdog who, despite not fitting the mold of the popular crowd, gets a chance that changes everything. It's a relatable narrative about how dreams and taking risks can transform the dreamer and those around them. The single was co-written by Dan Ashley and Bill Bentley and is available on all music platforms HERE. 


Dan has also released a lyric video produced by Ryland Knight to accompany the new song in support of the new music and available on the official artist YouTube Channel today HERE

“We can’t wait to see what is next in store for Dan Ashley. His music was an instant mood elevator and is exactly what this world needs more of. Whatever is ailing you, play some Dan Ashley to get you through it and you will be singing along in no time.”-Music Junkie Press

 "We’ve all had those moments in life when we didn’t feel like we belong or fit it. “Outside Looking In” is a boy wins the girl story that a lot of people can relate to for various reasons. The boy in this song isn’t the cool kid, he’s not the quarterback or the one voted most likely to succeed. He’s the underdog. But, when he was given a chance, the popular girl saw him in a new way and, in the process, changed herself. I wanted to write a story about that kid and what can happen if you dream and take your shot." expressed Dan Ashley.
 

"Outside Looking In” was Produced, Engineered, Mixed and Mastered by Bill Bentley and recorded at Bill Bentley Studios with Mike Vanderhule (drums), Bill Bentley (guitar, bass and BGV).
