   About Corin Ashley
Former bassist for the Pills (www.pillsrock.com), Corin (it's actually me writing this but it seems more professional to refer to myself in the 3rd person, right?) released his first solo album- an acoustic mix of George Harrison and Neil Finn- influenced songs- to much critical acclaim (that's what they always put when you don't actually sell a lot of CDs). He has toured with, opened for and/or collaborated with Martin Carr (Boo Radleys), Ed Ball (The Times, TV Personalities), Ken Stringfellow, Al Kooper, Robyn Hitchcock, Supergrass, Fred (greatest drummer ever- plays with the Wallflowers, Tears For Fears, etc.), The Libertines, B-52s, Edwin McCain, Jimmy Cliff, Ian Hunter, Mose Allison, Sloan, Richie Kotzen, Richard Hawley) and he once wrote a song with T- Bone Burnett, which T Bone does not remember at all. He also writes a regular review column for the Big Takeover and has been feature don NPR as a "Pop music expert". He knows a lot about the Beatles and is an avid ukulele enthusiast. Corin lives in Boston with his wife and wonderful, fab-tastic son Harrison.

Hey Corin. What studio is that? It looks pretty chill. Since you're playing guitar I figure you'll like this vid by Tom Hess http://www.kwotemusic.com/video.html

Greetings from New York City and thanks.  We're sharing the stage at the International Pop Overthrow at Kenny's Castaways on Sunday, November 8th--which you already know, of course, but I'm reiterating for the benefit of any strangers out there who may be browsing your profile so they'll know to show up at 1 PM to see me warm up the stage for you.

Remember we're all rehearsing short sets and won't be prepared to fill dead time, so please: no egg McMuffins before your flight to LaGuardia, thank you.

I love your profile URL, incidentally.

"It was never quite like this before. Not one of you's the same." "It's that American voice again" Now that Flickr has shut me down AGAIN I've decided to focus on my videos more than pictures for a bit and have started to make censored ones to reach more people. I should be able to get about 40 more of these done when I find all of the right music. I have around 150 hours of footage sitting in a suitcase waiting. I'm ranting, as I do... Youtube. com/thesupercult And of course I rant in real time at Twitter. com/chaselisbon Thank you for helping me promote. I've done a terrible job of it in the past. 1/1 Chase Lisbon of America
