Ashley Cooper (born 23 February 1988 in Cambridge, New Zealand) is a New Zealand Country singer and former contestant on the second series of New Zealand Idol. After being the third person to be eliminated out of the top ten on Idol,[1] she released her first single "I Want You", which debuted at nineteen and eventually peaked at number nine. Most of the single's success can be based on the physical sales of the single, as well as airplay, which it received.

Cooper teamed with Michael Tipping in 2007 to form the duo 2am, later changing to Michael & Ashley. They were named both New Zealand's Rising Stars and Horizon Winners in 2009. Also in 2009, the duo became the first New Zealanders to sing on the Global Artist Party in Nashville TN. They also released the album "Missing Home". In 2010 the duo were nominated for Duo/Group Of The Year at the 2010 New Zealand National Country Music Awards which they won. The Pair have also been given their own Radio show to host "Country Throwdown" as part of Hamilton Community Radio 106.7fm 1206am and streaming live from www.communityradio.co.nz, in 2011 the pair were the Opening Support Act for Country group Lady Antebellum for there very first New Zealand Show.[2]
