For the first time on vinyl, remastered and beautifully packaged in a gatefold sleeve with brand-new liner notes by Brett Milano: Power Ballads by Ashby -- their critically-acclaimed, uplifting little masterpiece and debut from 2001. The much talked about pop duo from Boston consisting of Evelyn Pope and Bill Cowie presents a lushly arranged sound that combines European movie soundtracks, Brazilian bossa nova, post-rock electronica and classic '60s pop. The Sea & Cake with female vocals, Broadcast with a sunnier pop quality, The Cardigans teaming up with Air. Strictly limited to 500 copies.
"Perfect -- Saint Etienne meets 'Moon Safari'-vintage Air!"(Pete Paphides, MOJO)
"If Tortoise or The Sea and Cake are post-rock, then Ashby is post-pop." (All Music Guide)
"Luxurious, intelligent pop!" (Q Magazine)
"Discovery of the year!" (Billboard)
