Ash Grunwald returns from summer festival success in the UK & Canada to the Australian live scene, bringing with him his signature blues, grooves and an all new Band. Accompanying Grunwald on the road are Benny Owen (Drum, Car door & junk percussion) and Kanchana Karunaratna (MPC sampler and West African drums), creating an exciting live atmosphere and showcasing tracks from his newest release, ‘Fish Out of Water’.
With hit single Breakout making the Triple J Hottest 100 (#50), and third single, Fish out of Water, named Song Of The Year at the 2009 Blues Music Chain Awards, Grunwald continues to receive critical accolades while solidifying his reputation as a charismatic and energetic live performer.
"...he comes on like Howlin' Wolf meets Beck, or an Australian version of soul-beats duo Gnarls Barkley. On 'Get What You Want' he even reaches Curtis Mayfield-esque falsetto...." The Age
"a warm, soulful gem of a set… gospel, funk and hip hop all make an appearance on Fish Out Of Water" Rolling Stone
"The fat, urgent rhythms drive Grunwald's smoking, bluesy riffs like an unlicensed teenager in a stolen car."J MAG
