New Single “Jump in the Line”

March 5, 2025

Ash have today announced details of their new single “Jump in the Line”. The track itself is a calypso song composed by Lord Kitchener and made famous by Harry Belafonte in 1961. Ash used the song as outro music at live shows throughout 2023 and 2024. The band said of the cover:

Artwork for Jump in the Line

“Jump in the Line has” been our go to outro music for live shows for the last few years so its no surprise it’s buried its way into our subconscious.

We’ve somehow regurgitated as a homage to The Ramones and it has classic Ash DNA splashed all over it. Frenetic tempo; check. Infectious hooks; check. Melody to die for; check. Face melting solo; check. And finally Mr. Hamilton’s blood curdling scream committed to tape. You betcha!

What started as a fun idea in a rehearsal room turned into something too good not to release.

The single will be released on April 2, 2025; however, you can sign up now to pre-add the track to your streaming service of choice and watch the exclusive zombie-riffic! video directed by Anthony Neale, who previously directed the “Crashed Out Wasted” promo in 2023.
