Tommy Ash

"The hard-edged honky tonk of the Tommy Ash’s latest, Sinner’s Blood, bares witness to Ash’s musical roots. It’s a quick jab of a record, stacking slapback rockabilly riffs over propulsive shuffles. The title track isn’t far removed from the cowpunk of the Blasters or X; “Sugar in a Bottle” evokes a Sun Records stomp; “When I’m On Gone” is a sweet sashay featuring revved up vocals from Ash. […] ”Friend” is a brassy ballad, with Ash employing an ace falsetto over languid pedal steel swells and “Yodelin’ Blues” evokes an imagined spaghetti western directed by David Lynch. Ash yodels, and it’s chilling.” - Phoenix New Times - Jason P. Woodbury

"Tommy Ash came in hot like a shooting star, landing gracefully at our number five spot with her single “Yodelin’ Blues“ from her 2013 debut album release of, “Sinner’s Blood.” Coming in just behind Nikki Lane at the #4 spot […] Throughout the years, Ash has transitioned into a young woman of true integrity, and has since proven in a mostly male dominated genre that women can be just as tough as any whiskey shooting roughneck out there. Breaking stereotypes, and kicking down walls. […] This singer, songwriter, and Arizona native is a genuine goddess of the honky tonk gospel, and is making waves throughout the Americana roots music movement" - wehatepopcountry.com

"Many extraordinarily gifted, and hardworking, hard driving, boot stompin, ass kicking revolutionists like Mr. Sturgill Simpson, Whitey Morgan, Tommy Ash, Nikki Lane, and Jake Penrod stand tall above the rest, tying together a fine example of how to respectably progress the styling of the country music format in a way that both purists, and progressives can confidentially get behind.

"With old country mega hits made new and original songs sounding retro cool, Tommy Ash had the 300+ audience rockin' in their seats"

"This concert was in two 45 minute segments and no energy was lost by Tommy Ash. If anything, she and her band seemed to gain momentum making the second half even greater than the first. All three of her backup musicians were top grade. The lead guitarist hit chops so good, making it sometimes sound like a steel guitar, that Carl Perkins and Marty Stuart would probably have smiled. The drummer was as solid as a metronome while visually flourishing without distracting. The bass player was subdued but solid as a rock with a moonshine barrel full of charisma. As great as all four were on their own, they were definitely a tight team where 1+1+1+1 seemed to add up to five, then seven, then 11, and that was only the first fifteen minutes. This concert kept getting better and better and better" - Examiner.com
