Dan Ashton
Singer / Songmaker
In his songs Dan uses natural imagery drawn in from his life in the wilds of Northumberland.
Expect the bees he keeps and collie dog he roams the hills with to be used to help convey songs of love, loss and childhood memories. The songs are original sounding and though quite personal in nature they are remarkably relatable.
Once described as an ‘untypical songwriter’
Hi Dan,
This is just a quick note to say a huge thank you for performing at Not Just Plum Jam on Sunday.
You were an absolute asset to the fayre, and your music sounded particularly good outside... it seems to complement the Northumbrian air and your music carries on the breeze. You were fantastic, and my daughter said the song about the sandcastles was really beautiful.
If possible, could we go ahead and book you for December's fayre taking place on Sunday 6th December? Best wishes, Sue Marley
