Ashlee Hewitt is a seasoned singer songwriter from the small town of Lancaster Minnesota. She moved to Nashville to pursue her career in music in 2006 and has since then made a name for herself one step at a time. Not only does she play guitar, mandolin, cello and keyboard, you can also add acting to that list. She has starred in several movies and is currently working on others. Her songwriting talents have landed her opportunities to write with some of Nashville's best, such as Jeffery Steele, Frank Myers, Dean Sams, Dave Gibson, Blair Daily, Troy Verges and many others. In the fall of 2014, Ashlee will release a new full length album all songs of which she either co-wrote or wrote alone. The album is being produced by respected Nashville producer Buddy Hyatt. She currently tours full time singing and playing guitar for legendary country superstar Lorrie Morgan while also being a mother to her beautiful 2 year old son Jackie Keith Whitley, II (aka "Tuff").
"At only 22, Hewitt's story is nowhere near the end. With new doors opening for her every day, Ashlee Hewitt's career is at the very beginning, and that's no fable."

“Ashlee Hewitt is an untapped natural resource”

"What I love about Ashlee is, in a world where artist try to mimic what's 'hot at the moment' vocally, Ashlee is her own person, with her own unique vocal style and ability. Many young artist come to Nashville with the hope of one day being a star. Ashlee Hewitt came to Nashville already a star."
