We’d like to introduce you to Broadway babe, Radio Disney alum, and budding pop star Ashlee Keating!
Ashlee has been singing almost her entire life. Growing up in Philadelphia, her breakout came at the ripe age of three, when she performed on a weekly basis with “Al Alberts TV Showcase.” In her youth, she combined her love of singing with acting, taking up musical theater and starring in numerous plays in her hometown. At the age of six, she landed the role of “Gretl” in The Sound of Music not only on Broadway, but in their National Tour as well.
In 2008, Ashlee was selected as a finalist for a Radio Disney’s Incubator Program, which not only got her songs some airplay but gave her the chance to perform at Radio Disney-sponsored concerts! Her music did so well that she was chosen to be the opening gig for many Disney stars who are now household names, like Demi Lovato and Raven-Symoné!
We recently had the chance to get to know Ashlee a little, and we’ll share our conversation with her after the jump. (more…)
