Since making the move from Brisbane to the United States in 2025, Theo has performed with artists such as Ulysses Owens Jr., Etienne Charles and the Latona Brothers among others and at internationally acclaimed venues including Birdland, The Django, Dizzy’s Club Cola and Smalls. Already an in demand performer, Theo is also currently pursuing a Master of Music degree at Montclair State University under the tuition of Jason Marshall, Oscar Perez and among other renowned artists.

An in-demand collaborator, he has performed and recorded with Grammy and ARIA Award winning artists and producers, contributing to projects that have reached audiences in the millions. In 2026, Ashley was awarded the Brisbane Lord Mayor’s Creative Fellowship, supporting a 3 month trip to New York City to undertake intensive study at the Tribeca Jazz Institute.
