Ashes & Arrows, a dynamic country/rock band born from the mountains of Asheville, North Carolina, and alps of Arrowtown, New Zealand, is making waves with their captivating blend of strong harmonies, poignant lyrics, and infectious on-stage presence.
Drawing inspiration from NEEDTOBREATHE, Judah & The Lion, & The Avett Brothers, Ashes & Arrows craft songs that are both uniquely original and authentically heartfelt.
Their musical journey began at an open mic night in downtown Asheville in 2021, where their individual music paths converged. United by a shared passion for music, Ciaran McMeeken, Benjamin Voigt & Jonathan Calhoun rediscovered the joy of performing and together found their collective voice.
Launching their debut EP, ‘Forward,’ in the fall of 2022, they have swiftly captured the attention of audiences worldwide. The EP has garnered thousands of streams, while their engaging videos have amassed millions of views on TikTok and Facebook. This early success is a testament to the band’s compelling musicality and their adeptness at connecting with vast and diverse audiences.
Now, with an upcoming album produced by the acclaimed Jamie Tate in Nashville, TN, they aim to contribute meaningfully and playfully to the global music landscape, aspiring to make a positive impact through their distinctive sound, playful nature and sincere expression.
Ashes & Arrows are offering a harmonious blend of influences that promises to resonate far beyond their mountainous origins.
