Ashley Eriksson
Biography
Singer/songwriter Ashley Eriksson got her start in music at a very young age, taking part in a children's choir that sang on Ren Stimpy's 1993 Crock o' Christmas album. During her junior-high years, she began writing her own songs and recording them using a Tascam cassette four-track on loan from her brother. Later, she moved to a digital recorder and began working on perfecting her craft. She recorded an album of some of her favorite songs by other artists in 2005 called Singles Covers and released Seasonal Music in 2006. That same year she started the band LAKE with Eli Moore, Lindsay Schief, and Kenny Tarantino, serving as a songwriter and vocalist. They released four albums of sweet and homey indie pop starting in 2008 with Tape on Funkytonk, then moved to K for 2008's Oh, the Places We'll Go, 2009's Let's Build a Roof, and 2011's Giving Receiving. In 2010 Eriksson released a solo album, Decarnarnation, and her solo version of "Christmas Island" from Let's Build a Roof gained some small fame from its use as the end credit music on Adventure Time. Eriksson's first solo album for K, Colours, was released in the summer of 2013. ~ Tim Sendra, Rovi
