I play everything myself. I’ve spent most of my time playing drums. Sometimes I played bass. (Montag, JZ
Barrell, Semi-Gloss, Odes, Eva Haze, Deformo) I was always writing songs of my own. I also write fiction and I’ve published a novel: Oscar Caliber Gun, also published as The Golden Calf. My second novel, North of Sunset, is out now. I’ve put out a CD called "Living Room." Hear and read more at Ash Tree.
Hey Ash Tree !! Greetings from New York City. Thanks for the ADD which I value. We're from different spectrums but its great to connect... You have great stuff going on. Have to go back again and check it out in more detail. Madooo.. The guy with the "BEATLES TRIBUTE ALBUM FROM INDIA"

Sir RE: 'Come on' Its got a rolling guitar and piano which i really like. I have listened to it twice and it has everything i like about an Ashtree track. Slightly dark and kind of tongue in cheek but with a nice positive feel (drums exceptional aswell). Great Vocal parts at the end. It will be on the playlist for Rw......will send a letter as i said, regards to the family++ Roy
now that we've relocated we wanted to drop a line and hopefully we're not to late to say happy new year.
Also, we've released two projects to start the new year, from Shawn Tracy and Jon Crocker, we would love it if you stopped by and gave them a listen...
Just got the record mate. Gonna go buy a couple of cote du rhones to have with it tonight. I'm sending on the album baby! Sorry. I hate all that sort of shit....The postcard was funny.

Shot in India, Europe and the Caribbean, Psycho Key tells us
this fascinating tale of adventures that take place between the hills of St.
Lucia, the stages of European festivals and the wide open sea. The whole soundtrack
is recorded and filmed live onstage and is mixed in with the original dialogues
of the movie.</span>
So, what is it about ?
Jahweve has spent his entire life on the island. He has seen
the big world on tv. He wants to travel...he wants to become a musician On
his small Carribean island there is no work, fishing doesn't make any money,
farming even less. Visas are impossible to obtain and flights cost a fortune.
As a Rasta, the only solution is to grow weed in the mountains, this way he
can hope to buy a chance to achieve his dreams. But the army helicopters are
coming to the hills more and more frequently to burn the plantations, and it
is becoming very dangerous for him.
One morning, as he still sleeps, he has a
vision, he sees faraway lands, hears strange music and meets people he never
knew even existed. This is a sign for him. He decides to harvest his plants
as soon as possible and leave for Martinique on a small boat. Of course nothing
comes that easy..
