Music Bugle Exclusive – Q & A – Ashley Virginia

By Nicholas Jason Lopez

Ask anybody how their past year has been and you’ll likely get a negative response, mostly in relation to the direction of mental health – whether it was from losses of loved ones, jobs or financial hardships.

Diagnosed with Major Depressive Disorder, Generalized Anxiety Disorder and Complex-PTSD, life hasn’t been easy for Ashley Virginia.

The North Carolina-based experimental folk-rock renegade peppers the theme of mental health all throughout her diary-esque debut full-length album ‘And Life Just Goes On Living,’ due out Aug. 13, 2021. The Music Bugle had the opportunity to speak with Virginia about her upcoming 11-track release and more.
