In 2005, she released her debut album titled Lemon Love. The name Lemon Love is due to the fact that every car she has owned turned out to break down, or in other words, turned out to be a "lemon"; she spent more on repairing them than they were actually worth. The album Lemon Love reached number #36 on the Top Heatseeker charts and it's single Be the Girl reached #26.
In January 2008, Aslyn released an EP entitled The Grand Garden EP. The EP features 28 songs, most of which were recorded between Lemon Love and Wherever the Dandelion Falls. It is divided up into 4 parts, each one having 7 different songs.
In January 2009, Aslyn's second full length album, The Dandelion Sessions was released under Lemonade Records. The 13 song collection includes some old fan favorites that have been played at live concerts for a couple of years now, such as "Your Best Thing", "The Way It Goes", and "Making Her Right". Another fan favorite recorded with Zac Brown, "Trying to Drive" was also included on the album. She is now managed by J.Romo Music Management.

Aslyn Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Dont wanna wait another night with you breakin
Dont wanna know just how it feels ot see you leavin
But i cant keep it to myself when your thinkin...
You got me bad,
You got me good,
You got me had,
When its me hangin by a moment that you snubbed along the way
Dont wanna lead you down a road that im not goin
Dont wanna hear about that dream without you knowin
I really dont have left a care but dont wanna feel guilty
Biting the bullet im aware your still believing...
You got me bad,
You got me good,
You got me had,
You got me hooked,
When its me hangin by a moment that you snubbed along the way
You got me close
And then you jump
My feet got cold
Took all the fun
And so i bite my lip and bear a smile but wont regret i dont stay awhile
You wanna think you got this bagged and that i couldtn want you more
But be aware that when im not there do you think you'll be so sure...
you think you'll be so sure...think you'll be so sure...
You got me bad,
You got me good,
You got me had,
You got me hooked,
When its me hangin by a moment that you snubbed along the way
You got me close
And then you jump
My feet got cold
It stole all the fun
And so i bite my lip and bear a smile but wont regret i dont stay awhile
