Ashley quickly built a name for herself within the Houston, TX area by competing in multiple singing competitions, such as Houston Pride Superstar and Bay Area Houston Idol… in which she earned the titles of in 2011 and 2014. Her musical influences are broad: Michael Jackson, Queen, Journey, Melissa Etheridge, Amy Winehouse, and her personal favorite… Elvis “The King” Presley.
Lead Vocalist, Heather Miller, recently crowned Bay Area Houston Idol 2015, has been a staple in the Houston music scene for over 10 years. With her unique vocals, intense and commanding stage presence, and looks that could kill… she brought a breath of fresh air when she joined The Band Hennessy in 2014. She captured the hearts of many when she was heard singing “Me & Bobby McGee” at an acoustic show in their hometown, and she has been a force to reckon with from day one. She credits her musical influences to Amy Lee of Evanescence, Jewel, Heart, Michael Jackson, and Reba McIntyre. Once you see your first live show, you will understand why many are captivated by these two powerful front-women. Their chemistry while performing on stage only showcases their distinctive sound further when their harmonies fuse together… showcasing one of the only bands today that feature two leading ladies.
