This will be Ashley, the songwriter’s, first time competing in Dora and Bojan’s third time. The lyrics were inspired by Ashley’s travels around the world and the idea that we are all more similar than different, no matter race, religion, status, or culture. “The last year has been tough on everyone and we all need more love, and most importantly to share the love,” she said. She will wear Larie by Marina Matić, a gown that will surely make a statement.
ASHBO has been preparing their performance for months and says it will be a spectacle, something that has never been seen before on Dora. “We always go full out on everything we do together, so you can expect a really good show,” Bojan said. They hope that people will be inspired to #ShareTheLove around the world.
The music was composed by Ivan Škunca who also wrote and composed Bojan and Ashley’s first duet, Zadnja Stanica. Škunca translated the lyrics of “Share the Love” into Croatian. ASHBO plans to release their official music video and the song in Croatia on Valentine’s Day, February 14, the day of love. ASHBO is proud to be sponsored by some of their favorite brands including Ilocki Podrumi, Zlatarna Gjoni, City of Cakovec, Villa Astra, airbreath® and Nova Rent a Car.

Ashley Colburn is a Croatian-American travel journalist born and raised in California, who decided to move to Croatia 5 years ago, basing herself in Istria. Her first Emmy was for “WOW Croatia” which was viewed by millions around the globe. Ashley continues to promote every corner of Croatia and believes it is the most beautiful country. After Zvijezde Pjevaju, ASHBO recorded their first duet together, “Zadnja Stanica” and filmed a video all around Croatia. In 2020, Ashley released Croatia’s first English country song that was composed by her mom and was produced in Nashville called, “Feels Like Home.” Since traveling was tough in 2020, Ashley grew to love songwriting, which led to her writing “Share the Love.”
