National touring country singer and songwriter Ashley Wineland is on a quick ascend. The powerhouse vocalist’s combination of electrifying stage presence and immersive storytelling has enabled her to carve her own unique trail as an independent artist with nearly a million fans engaged online. Because of her relentless work ethic, Ashley is an artist in full control of her career’s destiny, and her accolades achieved to date underscore just that. The Arizona-based artist has also taken the reins as her own booking agent, landing 60+ headlining shows across the country and spots on multiple festival and fair stages. Now working with Grammy-nominated, multi-platinum producer, songwriter, and musician Marti Frederiksen — known for hits like “Mama’s Song” (Carrie Underwood) and “Dreamer” (Ozzy Osbourne) — Ashley is entering 2026 with more new and innovative music on the horizon. Her music videos for songs “Crank It Up,” “Tumbleweed,” and “Heartbreak Boots” have racked up over a million views each. Recently, she released the single and video for “Loving You is Easy” (co-written with Frederiksen) and on November 20, 2026, she dropped both the single and cinematic music video for “Love Letter.” Regarding Marti and Ashley’s creative chemistry, Ashley exclaims, “Marti and I have had nothing but pure magic come out of the studio,” She describes her collaboration with Marti “a fresh direction with new sounds and themes.” Ashley’s upcoming music continues to reflect her evolution, ranging from fun and sassy to deeply heartfelt. Ashley Wineland’s arena-ready vocals and energetic performances have already drawn early comparisons to country icons like Carrie Underwood, Miranda Lambert, and Gretchen Wilson — and she’s excited to hit the road for her 2026 tour, after celebrating a highly-successful national tour with her “Moments in Time” Tour, bringing her music and live performances to the fans across the country. With the experience of opening for artists like Lainey Wilson, John Michael Montgomery, and Sawyer Brown, Ashley absorbed invaluable lessons in professionalism and the power of connecting with her audience. “Touring is when I get to take the duct tape off and shout to the world about all the cool things my team and I have been developing,” she says. As Ashley continues to break barriers and spread joy through her music, she’s quickly becoming a force to be reckoned with in country music. As an independent artist, Ashley values the connection she can share with her fans, whom she calls the “Winelanders.” “Nothing I do would be possible without their support,” she says. Their encouragement keeps her going, especially on tough days. Rooted in the rugged beauty of the western Arizona desert, Ashley’s music showcases the unique cowboy culture of her home state. “Many people don’t realize how western Arizona is,” she says. “Cowboy culture is so strong here, and being surrounded by ranchers and farmers has brought about many events and stories that influence my music.” Since bursting onto the scene as a teen, Ashley’s music journey began with a chance demo recording of cover songs that introduced her to key industry figures. That pivotal moment set the stage for her debut album Family Business and launched her career as a dynamic live performer. Her passion for the stage has fueled standout moments in her career — including a high-energy 90-minute set at Ak-Chin Pavilion, where she opened for Aaron Lewis and Eddie Montgomery at a special Veterans Day event. “It was a massive moment for me, playing for an audience of veterans,” she reflects. Her commitment to veterans is also integral to her mission. “I have so many loved ones who are veterans, and it drives me to want better for them,” Ashley says. Through her music, she has raised funds for veterans’ charities and worked to raise awareness for their struggles. As Ashley Wineland gears up for her 2026 tour and a wave of new music, she shows no signs of slowing down. Whether she’s lighting up the stage, cutting tracks in the studio, or engaging fans online, Ashley continues to build unstoppable momentum — proving you don’t need a major label to make major moves. Armed with authenticity, ambition, and a powerhouse live band, Ashley is blazing her own trail and making it look effortless.
