Ashford & Simpson

Ashford & Simpson were a legendary husband-and-wife songwriting and performing duo, best known for their soulful, heartfelt love songs and enduring impact on R&B music. Comprised of Nickolas Ashford and Valerie Simpson, the pair first made waves as songwriters, penning hits for Motown legends like Marvin Gaye & Tammi Terrell ("Ain't No Mountain High Enough") and Diana Ross ("Reach Out and Touch (Somebody's Hand)"). Their own recording career took off in the 1970s and '80s with hits like "Solid," a smooth, feel-good anthem that became a signature song. Beyond their own music, they were deeply involved in the music industry, producing and mentoring other artists. Their influence remains strong, with their songs continuing to be covered and celebrated across generations.
