December 24, 2020Brian Ashley Jones performed our wedding ceremony and cocktail reception. He was amazing. He was so nice and personable as well as a top notch performer. We wanted a blend of elegant, fun, bluesy, country, and acoustic and he nailed all of those with his personal songwriting style. If you are considering booking him for any event, do not hesitate. We loved him.
