Random follow #162 - @asheiBAND

@asheiBAND are a progressive rock band from Christchurch.  They have been around on the music scene for a while but they haven't yet found the magical formula that has launched them into the big time.  The thing with the music industry is that very few bands make it big straight away.

It takes blood, sweat and tears to make it in the industry.  It also takes years of hard work and practice.  There is no secret formula for success.  But there comes a point when a band reaches that sweet spot and they have their sound so perfected that you cant but help it.

Ashei (ash-eye) have been working their butts off for years.  They have been practicing, playing gigs and spreading the good word about their sound.  Twitter is yet another platform that they use to expose the world to what they are good at.

I am aware that their music is available online through iTunes and you can listen to it as well on YouTube.


But what do they tweet?  Well stuff like this -->

"Hi followers old&new! We've decided to give you a free download of one of our songs! PM or mention us in a tweet & we will send you a link x"

"New video from us! A cover of a @frank_ocean lost track "Eyes Like Sky"Hope you like it! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eq1JYqfyl4A …"

"If you're wondering what that's about and might want to support us too, head to http://tinyurl.com/ashei-EP for all the details #indiegogo"


And if you are wanting to see them play live you'll have to move quick because they are on their way to Australia in a couple of weeks time.  Just a quick heads up - the band have linked their Facebook account to twitter so most of their tweets now are links to their Facebook page.  I really hope that they start tweeting properly again but who knows.

And as always I try to give the last word to the Random Kiwi Tweeter of the day.  So here it is -
