Since Tash’s grandfather gifted a guitar at the age of three, the artist developed a love for self-teaching an array of different instruments around the guitar knowledge which they had been taught as a young kid during primary school. Quickly developing a unique style that has seen Tash breaking record attendances around the world.
Tash plays over 12 instruments (guitar, bass, drums/percussion, piano/keyboard/synth, oud, trumpet, saxophone, flutes, Pan pipes, sitar, harmonica, beat production) with guitar as their main love, a self-trained vocal that reaches over a 7 key range and a live show that needs to be seen to be believed.
The one-person powerhouse started out playing open mic nights at age 13 with the help of a fake ID. Soon to finish school with the reluctance to get a ‘real’ job, took to the streets to busk every day of the week on Melbourne’s famous Bourke St back in 2009-2015. That was the beginning of the local traction following Tash, soon to reach a worldwide global scale in the years following to present.
Recent accolades include over 1 billion combined streams, an ARIA award for Blues and Roots Album of The Year with ‘Flow State’, smash single ‘Jungle’ coming in at #3 in triple j’s Hottest 100, achieving multi-platinum sales for the Notion EP, double platinum sales for ‘Jungle’ and platinum sales for ‘Notion’ along with numerous gold certified singles and a certified gold debut album. All self-produced, self-composed, and self-arranged.
Tash was the only artist to sell out 3 Brixton Academy shows before their debut album along with selling another 500,000 tickets worldwide which recently culminated in a sold out performance at the iconic Red Rocks Amphitheatre, the Greek Amphitheatre, with noted stand out sets at Coachella & Lollapalooza.
