Original music and the occassional cover - with a difference
The Music Of Kevin Ashcroft

Andania is a project bringing together guest vocalists and musicians to record Kevin's music. Without the help of his fellow musicians, the project would never get off the ground and Kevin is very grateful to the talented people helping him.
Francesca T - Vocals
Francesca T is a young and vibrant vocalist who can put across the feeling in the songs she sings and has already shown that she has the potential to go onto great things in the music industry. Francesca currently gigs with her acoustic duo Grace And Favour

Kevin has known Nigel for many years and they have toured together many times including Kevin's first band Millstone Grit when they were teenagers with Nigel taking the lead vocals and rhythm guitar. Nigel is also great songwriter in his own right and has recorded his own music over the years. Nigel is not currently gigging at the moment
