Carnforth singer joins protest song
Gas Music, a new up and coming record label based in Media City in Manchester, has taken Ashleigh under its wing.
The 23-year-old singer from Crag Bank has also appeared on a new protest song which calls for people to become better in society and to act with integrity.

The aim is to protest against people living on the streets, childish squabbles in Parliament and continual war in the 21st century.
Producers described Ashleigh’s voice like angelic glass which runs in stark contrast to the deep rounded tones of Badly Drawn Boy, Gary Hilton and Martin Finnigan.
Ashleigh said: “I’m really excited to be part of this project.

“We all need to think about the need for compassion, respect, love, qualities we all possess but often fail to use. It’s not clever or cool to be thoughtless and cruel.”
The single will be released on June 3.
