"A great talent with great vocal approach and great guitar ability" -
Stevie Kilgour (No-title Magazine)
Rob Ashford is a Leeds based singer/songwriter who is the lead singer/guitarist and songwriter for Leeds band Eight Storys High.
Along with Bassist - Niall Stanworth, Drummer - Mark Woolsey and Lead Guitarist Andy Batchelor the eights are currently playing gig's in and around Leeds and recording tracks for a forthcoming e.p.
Please check the eights myspace page for further info and gig listings.
Rob started playing guitar and writing songs after many, many years of being part of the dance/house scene and went from dancing all night in various clubs listening to music to writing and creating his own.
Rob has played for a number of Leeds bands as a guitarist, keyboardist and singer but always felt he belonged upfront with his own messages.
Rob has already had excellent feedback from London based record companies including Columbia/Sony and Virgin Records and his music had been described as "Fresh and Innovative" by Guy Bulland (Head A&R Exec) at Virgin and "Catchy, whitty writing with a real positive attitude and a nice vibe" by Mark Brown (Columbia/Sony Records)
