Kit Ashton

OK so since that decidedly tricky week of painkiller overdoses and no guitar playing I've been nursing said shoulder back to usefulness - just in time to learn some guitar and keys parts for my new friends Official Secrets Act.
Focus now...

It's not been the best couple of weeks in my universe...

After an AMAZING night at the Hanbury Club doing 'So Like Costello', which went incredibly well despite standard Ashton Chaos, I've managed to damage my right shoulder pretty badly (long story) and at the same time we're now officially having to put things on hold (even longer story) for the album release - again... at least until fate decrees the world is ready for it...

Arse.

I'm doing it again, but this year it's Elvis Costello who I get to be obsessed with for the next few weeks...

Here's the press release blurb for my show in May:

"For one night only some of Brighton's top musical talent will perform the songs of genius and rock legend Elvis Costello, hosted by singer-songwriter Kit Ashton.

From punk-era terrier to art-minded genre tart - Elvis Costello has had one of rock's most wide-ranging and prolific careers, making him one of the most influential and popular singer/songwriters in modern music.

Tom Robinson is clearly a legend.

The brilliant singer/songwriter and BBC broadcaster seems to have no end of time and good advice for emerging and struggling artists, generously serving up great blogs, links, articles and recommendations - and now he's bigged up little old me...
