Asgard Raven is the indie rock project of Joe, an artist from southern England, UK. A veteran of the British Army, Joe channels his deployment experiences into songwriting. Producing punk, rock, blues, and indie-inspired tunes, he crafts a unique soundscape reminiscent of early ’90s British pop/rock. Recording at Hampshire’s Sunrise Sound Studio with producer Marc Burford of Echotape, Asgard Raven benefits from additional mixing by Mat Leppanen at London’s Animal Farm studio. Through Asgard Raven, Joe takes the next step of releasing his army-influenced songs publicly, offering listeners a blend of genres through diverse musical influences and skilled production.
Asgard Raven has gifted us with an introspective track called “Tranquility” that soothes the soul. Gentle riffs set the scene before relaxed beats join in, carried by the artist’s calming vocals.
