On today's RNV episode Coco and Mike chat with Dustin Brooks and Ashley Oswald about their experiences with music and with wine.
Ashley grew up in The Valley of Los Angeles which ignited her love of rock'n roll music. Living in LA gave her the opportunity to see so many of her idols perform in some of the most legendary venues of the time. When Ashley isn't rockin' out at a concert you can find her at Lancaster Estate working the Wine Clubs.
Dustin found his love of music while living in South Dakota learning how to operate the stage lights at shows. He then found himself in California working his 9 to 5 but wanting more. So he applied to become a harvest intern at a winery, he and Lancaster winemaker Dave Drake hit it off now they, along with Ashley, are hitting up as many shows together as they can. At night you can find Dustin perfecting his lighting skills The House of Rock.
