Artist Bio
Aston’s musical vision is as simple as it is breathtakingly beautiful: to present a set of Australian classics like no one has ever heard them before. Contemporary Australian classics presented as classical music. "Khe Sanh", "To The Moon & Back", "Beds Are Burning", "Straight Lines", "Never Tear Us Apart", "Confide In Me" and more. Quite simply some of the biggest and most loved songs in the history of Australian pop and rock music, radically rearranged and delivered afresh by a virtuoso outfit of young classical musicians. The six members of Aston, aged between 21 and 23, have come straight out of the Sydney Conservatorium of Music, the most distinguished music school in Australia. Some members are not due to graduate until the end of the year, but they are all already professional young musicians of the highest calibre. What began as a side-project amongst a bunch of students created an instant buzz that’s led to ASTON being signed by Warner Music Australia, recording a debut album and now preparing to take their unique modern classical sound out to audiences across Australia and the rest of the world.
