'Subb-an, aka Ashique hails from Birmingham, UK.With his variety of live sets Ash landed himself a residency at Birmingham’s respected ‘Below’. Known for it’s ever inspiring atmosphere and a finger firmly on the pulse, Below’s line-ups have enabled Ash to grow as an artist, supporting the likes of Mobilee artists Anja Schneider, Sebo K and Ralf Kollmann, girl-wonder Dinky and the UK’s own Jamie Jones and Clive Henry. Appearances at London’s The End, T-bar and Technique in Leeds, have ensured that Ash’s talent has not been confined to the West Midlands. The 2008 release of Italia on Leftroom, having received accolades from M8, Mixmag, and IDJ, has gained support from some of the leading names in the industry, with his productions being played by Laurent Garnier, Richie Hawtin, Sasha, Paul Woolford and Luciano to name but a few.The latest signing to Immigrant records, ’The Corridors Of Life’, released in May 2008 has support from Josh Wink, Loco Dice, Solomun, Jimpster and Soul Designer and will surely see this becoming Ash’s year , the fruits of his efforts to be rewarded with several planned releases and remixes.Confirmed for billing on coveted line-ups alongside Jamie Anderson and Jamie Jones, Loco Dice and the Mobilee crew, as well as summer dates in Barcelona with Jay Haze and Michael Ho, Below’s ’Like Minded’ Festival in Croatia and an additional residency with Immigrant’s T-bar parties, Ash’s talent is certainly one to monitor.'

This Tuesday Bohemian Jukebox presents The Dirty Old Folkers, Paul Oska, Bustmyflex and MotorCyclestunts.
The Dirty Old FolkersTwo self-proclaimed morris dancers, a fiddlin' femme and a non-bearded lady playing gritty, modern, foot tappin’ story-telling folk.
Paul Oska Dark minimalistic folk "Featuring one of the most beautiful opening songs I have heard, ‘I Think I’m Dead’ is a slow moving folk delight. The whole album contains a similar feel to albums by Sharron Kraus, the songs starkly embellished with picked guitar, sparse percussion and haunting strings, the songs intimate to the point of pain, filled with longing and a sense of futility." (Simon Lewis, Terrascope)
Bustmyflex the mesmerising Paul Fitzgerald plays acidic folk on his last Birmingham gig before he moves to Brighton!
MotorcyclestuntsBeautiful miserabalism influenced equally by both American and British Indie circa 1992. Which was a good place to be, and a good place to hark back to.
Tuesday 15th April, The Bull's Head, Moseley. Doors 8:30pm, £4 in. 1st shot of Sebor Absinth is £1.
