Ashley Campbell to headline the Boise Metro Chamber's 140th Annual Gala
Ashley Campbell, an exceptional musician and songwriter, spent three years touring with her father, the legendary Glen Campbell. She showcased her talent on the banjo and keyboards, gracing stages worldwide alongside her father. Ashley also played a crucial role in caring for her father Glen during his battle with Alzheimer's disease, both on and off stage. Glen Campbell passed away in 2017 at the age of 81. A documentary entitled, "Glen Campbell, I'll Be Me" has gained immense recognition, shedding light on the impact of Alzheimer's and the Campbell family's journey. The documentary propelled Ashley into a prominent role as a powerful voice for raising awareness about the fight to find a cure for Alzheimer’s Disease. After majoring in theater at Pepperdine University, Ashley drew from her personal experiences and her own musical prowess to compose her first single, entitled “Remembering,” a heartfelt tribute to her father. This moving song was featured in the documentary and was included in the Grammy-winning album associated with the film. In 2018, Ashley released her first album, The Lonely One, co-produced with her brother Cal on her own label. Her latest album Something Lovely, released by Vacancy Records in the UK, hit the Top Ten of the UK Country Charts upon release. She continues to tour internationally with her band. Through her music, Ashley hopes to share her family's story, inspire others, and provide solace to families coping with Alzheimer's and dementia. This year, a portion of proceeds from the 140th Annual Gala will also benefit the Greater Idaho Chapter of the Alzheimer’s Association, in honor of Ashley’s late father and the work Ashley and her mother Kim have done to generate awareness and progress.

Watch Highlights from the 139th Annual Gala in 2022
The 2022 Boise Metro Chamber Gala featured Five for Fighting frontman John Ondrasik, who performed several songs to a sold-out crowd. His original song dedicated to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenski, "Can One Man Save the World?" inspired attendees to contribute to the important cause. A portion of the proceeds from the gala was donated to relief efforts in Ukraine: $14,410 in total. We wish to thank everyone who attended and all who partnered with us to make these valuable contributions to a country in crisis.
