WOW! What a journey! Ein gute reise! The Outdoor Arena Tour with Ich + Ich is probably the best experience of my life so far. Adel and the band are lovely people (and Jackie Adel's dog is also pretty cool). They are also AMAZING musicians, one of the best live bands i've seen in a while. It's a great show. A MASSIVE danke to anyone that has clapped, whistled, bought a cd, sent me a message or simply enjoyed my music. ICH LIEBE EUCH!
Last night we played a really big show in Berlin's Wuhlheide - YIKES THAT WAS A BIG STAGE! It was a kind of a big deal for me, because that stage has been graced by some of my heros: Coldplay, REM, Foo Fighters, Clapton, Radiohead!!! And now little me :)
My new single 'All The Time In The World' is OUT NOW! Yaaaaaay! You can get it from Amazon, iTunes, Musicload and all the rest. It would be awesome if we could play pass-the-parcel with this song as it's one of my favs from the album. Send it to a friend, post it on your wall, or just sing it on the bus :) The video was shot in my hometown Scarborough UK:
"All The Time In The World" - Official Video
It's OFFICIAL! I have my own little tour coming up across Germany in November. It would be nice to see your smiley face there - and bring a friend :) You can get tickets by clicking the following link: Ashley Hicklin Tickets
These are the dates. I hope I come to a town near you!!!

And finally to end all the excitement of this blog, I have my baby back :) No not a lady-friend, MY GUITAR!!! I am proudly sponsored by Yamaha and they sent me an amazing sounding CPX15N acoustic. I recently sent it away to be customised, HAND-PAINTED with one of J.L.Gérôme's pieces of art - 'Duel After The Masquerade'. An amazing artist called Dragan Reiser painted it for me. I'M IN LOVE!!! This guitar means a lot to me, as one of ...my favorite tracks from my record is called 'Masquerade'. I feel like this painting is a perfect representation of my music. I just got the guitar back finished and sparkly! Wow just wow!!!!
I must say a massive thankyou to Yamaha for making amazing guitars, Dragan for his incredible painting skills, Frank Otto and all at Ferryhouse for their ever-growing support and also Franz Plasa at Home Studios for introducing me to these wonderful guitars.
Ahoy Ashley!
