Blues guitarist Franck Ash, was guitarist and band leader for Screamin' Jay Hawkins, recording two albums with him and playing in his band across the USA and Europe. Franck wows audiences with his vocal style, impressive guitar lines and excellent rhythmic feel; playing traditional and funky/soul blues originals and interesting versions of classic blues songs.
Immersed in Black American music from a very young age, Franck Ash developed a passion for singing and playing guitar at the age of 12. His love of music and hunger for the blues continued throughout his childhood and led him to become a professional musician in 1985. Three years later Franck won a prize at New York’s famous Apollo Theatre amateur night show and he became subsequently a frequent guest at the show.
Alongside the work with his own band, Franck was also invited to become band leader and guitar player for the great Screamin' Jay Hawkins. They toured Europe and the USA, including playing the 13th Chicago Blues Festival and recorded two albums together - "At Last" in Sam Phillips Memphis studio with Muscle Shoals rhythm section (1997), and "Live At The Olympia" in Paris (1998). This collaboration lasted up until Screamin’ Jay’s passing in February 2000.
Franck’s debut album in 1999 "This Must Be Love" was released to critical acclaim across the international blues scene, resulting in an award from the French Academy Of Jazz and an award as best European artist in 2000 by Euroblues. As inimitably his own style, Franck continued to develop a unique and versatile repertoire with a fusion of soul, R&B and funk on a solid blues ground and released "Beyond The Clouds" in 2003.
Personnel: Frack Ash (guitar, vocals); Roger Thomas (bass); Didier Guazzo (drums); Lionel Gaget (keyboards); Didier Marty (saxophone).
