Founded by singer and guitarist Tim Wheeler, bassist Mark Hamilton and drummer Rick McMurray in 1992, Ash established themselves as one of the UK’s most popular guitar rock acts of the 90s.
Their debut studio album, 1977, was produced by Owen Morris (Oasis, the Verve) at Rockfield Studios in Wales and released to much fanfare in 1996. It went straight to the top of the UK Charts and was voted by NME as one of ‘The 500 Greatest Albums of All Time’ in 2013.
Across their 32-year career Ash has released eight albums – including the two #1 albums 1977 and Free All Angels – and earned 24 top ten UK Indie Chart singles. Their most recent album, 2023s Race the Night, is their highest charting album in two decades and a return to form for the trio.
