Event information

One of British folk's finest singer-songwriters, Steve Ashley, heads for the Stroud Valleys on Sunday 14th September, to play an intimate lunchtime concert at the Prince Albert, Rodbrough.

Steve's reputation for writing contemporary songs inspired by the English Tradition was established in 1974 with his innovative debut album, Stroll On. Since then his songs have been recorded by many leading folk artists including Fairport Convention, Anne Briggs, Ralph McTell and Wizz Jones, Show of Hands, O'Hooley & Tidow, Dave Pegg and PJ Wright, The Arizona Smoke Review, Martin and Jessica Simpson, Grace Notes, Phil Beer, Maggie Boyle, Hannah Sanders and Liz Simmons and many more.

He has also played a significant role in the development of British folk-rock, performing as a lead singer with the first Albion Country Band, then with his own Ragged Robin and various line-ups of The Steve Ashley Band. He has also performed occasionally with members of Fairport Convention.

Steve has released twelve highly-acclaimed solo albums, one of which (Steve Ashley's Family Album) was reissued by Talking Elephant, with extra tracks of the album first released by Woodworm Records in 1982. One song, Somewhere In A Song was reinstated from the original sessions and For Bruce, which Steve released on his album Another Day in 2017 was also included in recognition of the late Bruce Rowland's involvement in the production of the album. The booklet included recollections of the sessions from Steve, Dave Pegg and Chris Leslie.

A biography of Steve's musical career, written by the prolific rock author, Dave Thompson, with contributions from many old friends and associates, was released nine years ago, 'Fire and Wine - an armchair guide to Steve Ashley' - traces Steve's fifty-year musical history, with a selection of rare photographs and a comprehensive catalogue of songs, releases and session musicians, from 'Farewell Britannia' through to 'Time and Tide' and beyond. The book was also made available in Kindle and Nook formats.

Steve will be supported at this special musical event by his friend, the singer-songwriter Mike Weaver.

"...one of the finest singer-songwriters in Britain, if not the entire English-speaking world" - Karl Dallas, Melody Maker 1973
