BIOGRAPHY
A journeyman, storyteller, and troubadour at heart, Ash Grunwald has inspired a generation of roots artists to hit the road in an old beat-up van and ‘surf by day, jam by night’.
Enshrined by Australian folklore, live on stage, Grunwald rocks the house yet touches the soul, serving a tsunami of dance, beats, roots, bass ‘n’ blues. He has supported legends James Brown, The Black Keys, Jack Johnson, Xavier Rudd, and Keith Urban, among numerous others, and played sold out festivals across Europe, Japan, and North America.
With six Australian Top-50 albums to his credit, alongside five ARIA and four AIR Award Nominations, two APRA Awards, and gong for Best International Act at the LA Music Critic Awards in 2014, Grunwald is cast in bronze among Australia’s most successful blues musicians.
ABOUT THE NEW ALBUM
Grunwald set the Mojo Stage alight at Bluesfest earlier this year, with a scintillating show featuring the Moog synth wizardry of Ian Peres and tropical ambassador of rhythm ‘n’ groove, Bobby Alu. It also marked Grunwald’s 10th appearance at Bluesfest, which cast Ash into Australian Blues folklore and enshrined the living legend as an institution at Australia’s most iconic music festival.
To commemorate the momentous occasion, Grunwald entered Brooklet studios with Ian Peres (Wolfmother, Bernhard Fanning), Bobby Alu (Xavier Rudd), and producer Nick DiDia (Springsteen, Peral jam, rage Against The Machine) to record the set the trio smoked at Bluesfest 2023.
Entitled Bluesfest Studio Sessions, the new LP features all your favourites, curated from a career and catalogue spanning 20 years.
