Badwell Ash
Badwell Ash was formed in March 2004 by Stewart Charlesworth and Simon Pettitt, age 16 and 15 years respectively at the time. Initially the music was solely acoustic guitars but it later broadened out to include electric guitars, piano and Caroline (Caz) Adlington on drums. Now without a drummer the band is playing fewer gigs due to individual music commitments - Stewart concentrating on performing solo and Simon on sound/recording engineering. On those occasions when the band does get together it returns to its roots and focuses on playing purely acoustic music.
Gigs played include Cambridge Strawberry Fair Main Stage (Europe’s biggest free festival), Cambridge Corn Exchange, Edinburgh Festival Fringe, Secret Garden Party twice (where the band was voted one of the highlights of the Acoustic Tent on Music OMH.com see www.musicomh.com/festivals), Rhythms of the World Festival and the Ealing Jazz Festival twice. Details of all band gigs (past and future) can be found on this site.
