First Listen: Ashley Scott wants to “Dance The Night Away”

ashleyscott

(February 15, 2020) Emerging soul singer Ashley Scott has dropped his second single to date, and it’s one that’ll have you stepping in the name of love.

Co-written by Will Downing and Whayn Parr, “Dance the Night Away” is accentuated by lush strings, sweet flute flutters and cozy harmonies, all encircling a midtempo groove harnessed by Chicago stepping vibes. And on a closing ad-lib, using his best Howard Hewett-esque crooning, the Philly-based singer-songwriter encourage steppers while on the musical journey: “One, two, three four/Let me see you do some more.” 

It’s also charmingly romantic, perfect for a soulful Valentine’s night (and beyond). Get into the groove on this neat First Listen.
