Trey Lewis Live @ The Cricket! Presented By Mike's Fence Center & Beaver Coach Sales
With a pair of home grown hits behind him and plenty more in the tank, Sony Music Publishing singer-songwriter Trey Lewis has emerged as the straight-talking, salt-of-the-earth hero country fans crave. A Birmingham, Alabama, native known for breaking country’s unspoken rules, he’s spent 12 years on the road perfecting a gritty mix of contemporary country and Southern rock – and turning his call-it-like-I-see it attitude into song. After the breakout smash, “Dicked Down In Dallas,” went viral in 2020, Lewis’ cheating anthem with a modern punch has turned into an organic Number One on iTunes, garnering more than 100 million streams and making Lewis a nationwide force in the process. He followed up with another self-styled iTunes Number One in 2022 – the back-in-the-saddle anthem, “Single Again” – and has continued building a reputation fusing country horsepower with refreshing honesty and a troubadour’s wit ever since. But that reputation now broadens, as a bigger picture comes into view. Set for release in 2023, the perennial underdog and relentless road warrior will showcase his true character and full artistry on Troublemaker, adding a hard-earned sense of compassion to his full-length Nashville debut. The fittingly-titled set will feature 15 new songs and Lewis’ patented mix of intensity and sincerity, proving the world could use a few more troublemakers like him.

Ashely Walls Live @ The Cricket! YEEDM After Party Presented by Mike's Fence Center & Beaver Coach Sales
My name is Ashley Walls and I am a Georgia girl born and raised in Marietta, GA. Back home, my twin and I grew up concrete cowgirls, enjoying the country way of life even though we lived near the city. I always loved going to my grandpa’s house, playing his guitars and singing country music with him. My parents said that when I was little, I would carry around a guitar with me everywhere I went and go up to strangers and make up songs on the spot for them.
As I got older, I joined choir, did some plays, and would come home after cheer practice and practice/write for hours until my mom would tell me “it’s time to take a break and get some sleep!” I performed songs at pep rallies, around GA, and wrote songs every chance I got. Then, I went off to UGA to study marketing & music business~ go dawgs. While I was there, I still was making music and performing every chance I got & ended up touring all over the Southeast, hearing my songs on iHeart media stations, and even opening for Billy Ray Cyrus and others— I couldn’t believe it. I decided that was a sign from God & it was time to give music my full heart & time, so I graduated early and moved to Nashville.
That brings us to today where I’ve been on my journey as an artist writing, performing, and working on SO MANY songs that I cannot wait to share with you. All of my songs come straight from my heart and are a product of what I grew up on— country, with a flare of pop.
So saddle up & come with me for a wild ride~ bc the fun has just begun!
