Creating fun music for people to enjoy is truly a goal that Ashlands Attic, a Rock & Pop band based out of Ashland, Massachusetts, has set out to achieve. The band’s story literally began in an Attic nearly two years ago, when band members first started to record lively music that people could snap their fingers and tap their toes to. The band realized it was destiny for them to come together, when ironically they had all attended the same college simultaneously, but didn’t actually link up musically until after graduation. It was then that they recognized they wanted to make music to get people onto the dance floors again. The band, comprised of members Joe Benatti on drums, Ben Larracey on guitar, Mark Lawton on bass, and Ryan McMullen on lead vocals and keyboard, describes their sound as a mixture of part retro and modern rock, blended with the essence of each of the band member’s personal influences. With combined influences including The Beatles, Queen, Coldplay, The Killers, Keane, and The Beach Boys, Ashlands Attic merges the sound of classic rock bands with modern rock to create new music that is luring to the ears of listeners. After one or two listens of Ashlands Attic, their music will certainly addict you.
Ashlands Attic creates their music to give audiences a sound that has long been appreciated, but severely missed. Ashlands Attic fills that hole by providing the feel good vibe that today’s one-dimensional music lacks. While the band has their share of ballads and deep songs that will pull at the emotional strings of music fans, it’s ultimate goal is to consistently inject fun into the atmosphere. The goal is that people should have a good time while listening to music and forget about the more stressful things in life. Ashlands Attic is currently promoting their debut album titled, “To Shelley, With Love.” The album features numerous fan favorites including, “The Beginning,” which seamlessly fuses pure vocals and music together, to create an inviting sound for music lovers. And who couldn’t love “Simple Kiss,” a song that pays homage to The Beatles while transporting you back in time to an era where people celebrated fun over stressful things. The band is currently performing live and pursuing their goal of having more people become familiar with their music.
