Studio Live confirmed dates...
Charlie Ash - Thursday 9th April @ Vesbar AUT
Next Studio Live - Charlie Ash
New Zealanders take pride in their do-it-yourself approach and the members of Charlie ASH, currently based in Auckland, are no exception. Forming in 2005 when vocalist Rosie Riggir and bassist Mailee Mathews bonded over a love of electro-pop, lavish costumes and extravagant stage shows, the band has since been busy in the Kiwi music scene. With their first full-length album due to be released in August 2009 on LOOP Recordings in New Zealand (they already have an EP, CAN.CAN, under their gold lamét belts), recent triumphs include New Zealand's first 3-D video -Ah-hA- and an electrifying performance in the finale slot at the 2008 New Zealand Music Awards surrounded by dancers, acrobats and circus 'freaks.' In past years the band has opened for international acts New Young Pony Club, Chicks On Speed, Juliette Lewis and the Licks, the Slits, and OKGO. They’ve also found time to produce an award-winning musical BOX for the Wellington Fringe Festival and a debut video "O'Baby" that won Best Overall Video at the 2006 Radio Active Handle the Jandal Music Video Awards.
In May of this year Charlie ASH will take this explosive creativity overseas, with tour dates in Brighton for The Great Escape Festival 2009, in London (supporting fellow Kiwi Ladyhawke), Amsterdam, Berlin, and Paris.
Get along on Thursday April 8th to check these guys out!
