Asgard Raven

UK Indie Rock Band

Asgard Raven is an Indie-rock artist from the south of England, UK.


Producing songs born from his experiences during deployments in the Army and influenced by his love of extreme sports, Joe (singer and songwriter) has taken the next step towards bringing them to life and releasing them to the public. Drawing on many musical influences including punk, rock, blues and indie music, he produces a unique landscape of sound reminiscent of early 90s Brit pop and rock records.


Asgard Ravens' music is recorded at Sunrise Sound Studio in Hampshire, produced by Marc Burford of Echotape and mixed by Mat Leppanen at the Animal Farm's studio in London.

New music is scheduled for release throughout 2024 via The Animal Farm record label, starting with Light of My Life in January and For Us All in March.

Asgard Raven back on Andover Radio

16 August 2024

It was a pleasure to be invited back in to the Andover Radio studio for a chat with DJ Ben Tuffin this week. We discussed the new single Tranquility, what it’s about and how it was made, and also what’s been going on since we last spoke in January and what’s next for the band. The show aired on Thursday 15th August 10am - 1pm BST. 

New single Tranquility released 

12 July 2024

Asgard Raven's new single Tranquility has an early Britpop shoe gazing feel to it, and is his 4th release through London based label The Animal Farm this year.

Released on the 12th of July, it's about how hard it is to find any peace and quiet in the modern world, where the demons are never too far away. 

Tranquility, brought to life by dreamy soundscapes that build to distorted highs, provides a happy place where you can clear your mind and find tranquility. At least for a few minutes!

Two versions are available, a full length epic and a shorter radio edit.

Until Another Day

20 September 2021

This rock’n’roll song is a tribute to a close friend from my Regimental skydiving team, who was killed in Afghanistan in January 2008. 

I’ve tried to capture the unpredictable nature of life, how we take for granted the things we know and love.

Released 20 Sept 21. 

Rollercoaster

28 January 2022

An upbeat and anthemic song about striving for what you want in life, despite the numerous reasons not to even try. 

Released 28 Jan 22

Light of My Life

26 January 2024

Light of My Life is a heartfelt acoustic love song with Marc Burford on vocals, and focuses on how the love and support from someone can carry you through the hard times and lift you up to achieve your dreams. 

It also talks about how difficult it can be to tell someone how you feel and how much you value them, even though it’s not always easy for them to always be there for you. 

It was mostly recorded in Sunrise Sound Studios in the UK with the strings recorded remotely, and the final mix done by Mat Leppanen at the Animal Farm studios in London.

Released 26 Jan 24 through The Animal Farm record label. 

For Us All

22 March 2024

For Us All is an energetic rock’n’roll song highlighting the challenges, barriers and loneliness people can often face when trying to get on in the world, especially if they don’t conform to the ’norm’.

Produced by Marc Burford at Sunset Sound Studios, mixed by Mat Leppanen.

Chasing Your Dreams

17 May 2024

This indie rock song has a 90’s Britpop feel with a bluesy twist, and explores the ancient Egyptian concept of having your life evaluated prior to entering the afterlife. You’ve made your choices and chased your dreams, but have you lived a good life and are you leaving a positive legacy, or will you have to pay for your mistakes?

Tranquility

Scheduled for the 12th of July, it's about how hard it is to find any peace and quiet in the modern world, where the demons are never too far away. 

Tranquility, brought to life by dreamy soundscapes that build to distorted highs, provides a happy place where you can clear your mind and find tranquility. At least for a few minutes!
