Literally just off the plane from killing it in the UK at festivals and his own headline shows, Ash Grunwald is getting geared up to deliver to Australian audiences his most adventurous and exciting release yet; the full length studio album FISH OUT OF WATER.
The album, which he collaborated on with respected beats master Countbounce from TZU features an exhilarating hybrid of musical styles, infused with beats and grooves, junkyard percussion, scorching riffs and Grunwald’s trademark deep and strong vocal that is bound to impress and delight fans of quality music.
THE DEVIL CALLED ME A LIAR, the first single from the album, is a live favourite for Grunwald, featuring a grappling guitar riff that arose out of a particularly productive jam session one night. Producer Countbounce’s description of Ash is that he’s an enthralling riff writer. “And he’s come up with a corker here,” he says. The collaboration with Countbounce has produced an album that positively bristles with enthusiasm and energy.
Fans of Ash Grunwald will already be familiar with his strong sense of musical adventure, and with Fish Out Of Water he has truly let his hair down, pushed all the boundaries and let rip in a major way. The upshot? A career highlight. And further proof that this Australian performer is bringing blues and roots to a whole new generation.
Triple J seem to agree, adding the track to rotation and coming onboard to co-present Grunwald’s upcoming national tour, which kicks off late August in Darwin before heading to WA, and then across to the East coast thru September and October.
