Sarah Motes Ashley

Sarah Motes Ashley is a classically trained singer/songwriter who loves to rock and a gifted lyricist who loves the “la las” and “whoa whoas.” It’s all about the story. Sarah Ashley’s songs and lyrics have won awards across the country and can be heard on internet radio stations; she has licensed songs and instrumentals with publishers and sync agencies across the U.S. and in parts of Europe and Scandinavia. When onstage, Sarah prefers to sing with friends, and still gigs with The Blondes, her Chicago based 3-girl group of almost 20 years, and with Blesser Heart, her Tennessee group. She also writes for the musical theatre; her most recent show “Waiting” was workshopped in Northern Virginia in spring 2015. Some of her songs will soon be in worldwide digital distribution, available on Spotify, Itunes and other online stores.

Sarah was a performing singer/songwriter for 20 years in Virginia and Chicago before she and the family moved to East Tennessee (“We were cold” is the main reason for the move). Sarah loves the Smoky Mountain Songwriters Festival and the many friends she has made here.
