Sticky Jazz Interview Ashen Ringlets

If you find a favorite sound, you want nothing more than an endless supply of that sound. I discovered Ashen Ringlets on youtube just grooving on Cocteau Twins, they did some covers, and I was hooked. I have followed them for years, and talked to them intermittently about projects in the hopper. Having released an EP Of original material titled "Waltzing Days in Maidenhead" last year, and now a single "Waiting for the time" (complete with a B-side) they are well on their way of building a wonderful and respectable catalog. Hailing from Oklahoma where there isn't a large community of 4AD type music followers, Joe and Ellen manage to really stand out, and have managed to write some powerful music, lyrically that just crushes you sometimes, and music that makes you feel like you are floating around, on a sea of cotton candy, stirred by a peppermint pig in Las Vegas. With Joe on most guitars and synth and sequencers, Ellen on bass and vocals, Ashen Ringlets are just one of those bands to love the moment you first hear them. website Bandcamp soundcloud Instagram Facebook Youtube #ashenringlets #johnfryer #4adrecords #4ad #cocteautwins #lizfraser #robynguthrie #gonzomusicjournalism
