Ireland’s favourite power pop trio ASH, finally return to Australia and New Zealand to Celebrate the 30th Anniversary of their iconic debut album, 1977, by performing the album in full. Released in 1996, the album’s title references both the decade the band members were born in and the year Star Wars first hit cinemas.
1977 has sold more than 2 million copies worldwide and was written, recorded and released when most of Ash were still only 19. A cinematic punk-pop soundtrack to binge drinking, chasing girls, youth and frustrated adolescent idealism, the album fused power pop, glam rock, post-grunge and Britpop into a loud, melodic and exuberant sound.
