The Melody Maker predicted great things for Ash after reviewing his first solo gig at The Mean Fiddler in Harlesden. This prompted Ash to go on tour, and tour he did, packing-out venues across The UK, America, Belgium and Germany.

Ash followed-up his tour with his first album, “Evolver”, released in 2003, which was well received by The UK press and regional radio stations. It also got rave reviews from the French radio station Val, and GLR, with Lucy Longhurst inviting Ash, to perform a live acoustic set on her show.
