Andrew Ashong will bring his blend of fresh, soulful music to East London’s popular arts space Rich Mix on the 22nd October. Transmitting his sweet, deep grooves alongside his live band, this will be another memorable live performance from the London-Ghanaian musician.
There is no doubt you will have heard the championed ‘Flowers’ track Ashong released back in 2013 with fellow creative mastermind Theo Parrish on the Detroit producer’s Sound Signature label. Winning ‘Track of the Year’ at Gilles Peterson’s Worldwide Awards 2013 - this funky title track could be heard across most of the festival circuits that summer and quickly became a people’s favourite.
‘It's soul music for people who have been dismayed by most of the major developments in soul music of the last two, even three, decades.’ The Guardian
Known not just as a live musician, his Dj sets are as full of flair and creativity as his live shows and have demonstrated to many a joyous crowd member the range in his influences, both past and present, accumulated during his teenage years crate-digging for classic disco, funk and soul vinyl in charity shops, and listening to his older brother's Ayers, Herbie Hancock and Talking Loud Records collection.
“Ashong… chooses to retrospectively immerse in the ethics of true music.” Clash
Andrew Ashong manages to demonstrate seamless flair with his performances, combining a mixture of styles and tastes that merge together into a uniquely captivating show. Make sure you come down to this one!
