ASHFIELDS formed late 2015 with Louis, Carl, Thomas, Boam and Josh. Originating from the small mining towns of Sutton-in-

Ashfield and Kirkby-in-Ashfield, the band started when cousins and guitarists Carl and Tom decided there was more to the

town than pillaging and carjacking. Within months of forming and writing music the lads saw themselves out of the local pubs

and into the heart of Nottingham, supporting bands such as Amber Run, All Tvvins, The Sherlocks, Judas, King No-One,

Redfaces, Teleman and many many more. The boys saw themselves in 2016 break the record for a band for most number of

support slots in one year between Bodega and Rescue Rooms (16 Times), this helped the band sell out their own show in April

2017 and move up to a headline show at Rescue Rooms in December 2017 (close to another sell out).

ASHFIELDS have been branded as the most hard-working band to brace Nottingham, their efforts to market themselves and

their shows is incredible for an unsigned band with no management. They were known for bringing more people to shows

than the bands they were supporting and now being on a very short list of unsigned Nottingham bands to sell out the Bodega,

and now close the a repeat at Rescue Rooms.

Festival season 2017 was ASHFIELDS first real taste at the festival scene, starting with Nottingham’s famous Dot to Dot

Festival. Dot to Dot 2017 saw ASHFIELDS open main stage Rock City for the likes of Amber Run, Sundara Karma, The Big Moon

and many more. To get main stage across 42 different stages and venues was a big deal and saw the start of ASHFIELDS being a

regular to bigger capacity venues.

Festival season didn’t stop with Dot to Dot, the band managed to secure a headline slot at Nottingham’s biggest unsigned

music festival ‘Riverside Festival’. The festival is in the heart of Nottingham bringing most of its population to take part in a

firework display and many music tents. ASHFIELDS headlined main stage on the Saturday evening, bringing in huge crowds of

stunned music fans and even being reviewed as the events major highlight.

ASHFIELDS Released their debut EP titled ‘NEW SKIN’ on April 8th, 2017 with a sold-out show at The Bodega (220 Cap), since

the release the EP has racked up an accumulated 100,000 listens on Spotify with the single ‘Is It Alright Now’ featured weekly

on Spotify’s ‘Discover Weekly’ playlists.
