Ashton Nyte touring South Africa (and supporting The Mission's Wayne Hussey with his tour of South Africa)

South Africa's favourite darkling, will be touring his home country this May! Ashton Nyte, who has been based in US since 2008, has confirmed concert dates with Wayne Hussey of The Mission (UK), as well as headline shows of his own.

Ashton, the voice, multi-instrumentalist and songwriter for gothic rock outfit The Awakening, recently released a new solo album, "Some Kind Of Satellite" through Just Music in South Africa. Along with South African press, the album has been very well received around the world, including features and interviews in Auxiliary and Gothic Beauty Magazine (USA), Sonic Seducer (Germany), Electro Oracle (Sweden) and many more. He currently adorns the cover of alternative art and fashion magazine Giuseppina (USA) and has just been invited to perform in Switzerland, Germany and Austria later this year.

Ashton describes the shows as "Dark and theatrical, yet intimate affairs, celebrating my new work, older work and work with The Awakening. Suitable melodrama guaranteed."
