Brian Ashley Jones is a soulful singer, accomplished lead guitarist, and versatile songwriter who draws from a variety of traditional music to create his own brand of Americana. Described as "Blues Grass", Jones' music is heavily influenced by the guitar driven blues, bluegrass, country, and rock that he absorbed while growing up in a musically diverse family in South Carolina. Now based in Nashville, Tennessee and endorsed by Taylor Guitars, Jones maintains an active touring schedule and performs about 150 live shows per year.

    Jones showcases his writing and playing chops with 11 well crafted original songs in his 2007 release Courier. The swampy instrumental "Pull 'em Up" has been featured in the widely acclaimed PBS television series Road Trip Nation, and the lighthearted bluegrass tune "Johnny Appleweed" has been selected as the theme song of a feature length film.

     Along with his own busy touring schedule, Jones has found time to accompany a diverse batch of artists on stage and in the studio including Eric Heatherly, Caroline Aiken, Sara Hickman, Donna Hopkins, and Grammy Award winning songwriter Jon Vezner.
