Alien Stash Tin are a bunch of old rockers from the Bristol / Cheltenham area who believe in growing old disgracefully. With over 100 years of collective experience between them they arent gonna change a habit of a lifetime now!!
Band/artist history
Alien Stash Tin was formed in September 2002 by a group of Bristol based musicians and the line up has since undergone several changes. The band made their live debut in August 2003 supporting Bad Manners at the annual Respect In The West anti-racism festival and since then has gigged their way steadily round the South West building a steadily growing fan base.

Have you performed in front of an audience?
We play anywhere that will have us. AST is a live band first and foremost and our main reason for being is to play in front of people and entertain them. Since we started we have been concentrating on gigging our way around the Bristol and Somerset areas but are looking to travel further a field over the next year. Highlights of our past gigs include a couple of free festivals, support slots with Bad Manners, and Cauda Pavonis and crazy crazy nights in as diverse places as Glastonbury Backpackers, The Yew Tree in Dursley and The legendary Bunch of Grapes in Bristol.
Your musical influences
Our influences are many and various, consisting of what the members are into. Basically the foundation is 70s and 80s rock and metal; Hawkwind, Led Zep, Jethro Tull, Lou Reed, Black Sabbath, Marillion, The Groundhogs, Budgie, Lynyrd Skynyrd, even a dash of (Shock horror) early Status Quo, but on top of that you have other influences like 80s electro pop, acid psychedelia, reggae, old school punk and even stuff like NOFX and Black Rebel Motorcycle Club. We like to think there is something for everyone in our sound.
What equipment do you use?
Marshall, Laney and Trace Elliot back line and anything that we can make sound good played through it.
Anything else?
There is no such thing as a stranger; the whole world is full of friends we have yet to meet.
