Client needed a memorable way to have prospective customers remember their name. I rhymed their name with a component of their business: "Get Splashin' with Ashton".
Bruce Bergh’s newest 2014 release, “Night Life” is a collection of original “Rat-Pack” tunes written during 2011-13 as a nightlife entertainer in some of Chicago’s finest dining establishments.
