Ashbury Records to release Ryan Auffenberg's "Golden Gate Park"
On March 22nd 2011, Ashbury Records will release Ryan Auffenberg's album, Golden Gate Park. Recorded in the Spring of 2005, Golden Gate Park is the LP from which all four songs on his acclaimed "Bright Lights EP" were to come the following year. The album was engineered and produced by Dylan Magierek (Mark Kozelek, Erland Oye of Kings of Convenience) and represents an important formative milestone in the career of a musician who was just beginning to find his artistic voice. Available for the first time in its entirety since its recording nearly six years ago, Golden Gate Park will be available via the iTunes music store and all other digital music outlets.

Ashbury Records to release Halsted’s "Life Underwater" in Summer 2010
This summer, Ashbury Records will release Halsted’s new album "Life Underwater". Halsted is the new brain child of acclaimed singer/songwriter Ryan Auffenberg, whose 2008 debut solo album "Marigolds" received national accolades in the press, college radio and placement on major network television.
Returning with a new album and under a different moniker, Halsted’s "Life Underwater" weaves a masterful patchwork of musical textures, ranging from wide-eyed, anthemic bombast to hushed, plaintive intimacy. Or rather, as Auffenberg simply states, "We hope it makes you wanna drive just a little bit faster."
