Ainsley's Experience

I have been playing live shows since I was 14. I graduated from high school at 16 and have been attending Berklee College of Music online since I was 15. I just turned 17 years old and am in my sophomore year of college. I have played 100+ shows in 6 states and moved to Nashville, TN in 2020 just weeks before the world closed down.
