TORONTO – Pop-punk veterans Ash are in the mood for celebrating. This year the band’s 1996 chart-topping debut album, “1977,” will turn 20 years old, and frontman/guitarist Tim Wheeler says he and his bandmates — drummer Rick McMurray and bassist Mark Hamilton — are looking to plan some festivities.
“It’s a big year. We’re talking about celebrating it, actually … maybe play a few shows in the U.K.,” Wheeler says before adding that he’d like to head to North America, Europe and possibly come back for more Japan gigs.
