Aynsley Lister
Aynsley’s recent album UPSIDE DOWN was released on Ruf Records. Every aspect and quality that his fans have now come to expect is there, from the raunchy guitar, the melodic voice to the infectious songs but to simply pronounce this release another worthwhile effort would be an injustice indeed: Critics have been unanimous in their praise: “His best album ever” – GET READY TO ROCK “Deft lyrical touch and musical feel” – ZEITGEIST “Upside Down’ is a great album” – GUITARIST MAGAZINE “Bursting with killer riffs and songs” – CLASSIC ROCK
