Ash still 'shining lights' after 30 years on the road:

It's Downpatrick in 1992 and three pupils at Down High School form a band."We started Ash when we were 15 and we got signed when we were 17 so it was quite quick," says lead singer and guitarist Tim Wheeler.

"To outsiders I think it looked quite quick but I remember within about a year of being in the band we were getting quite frustrated about not getting any progress with record deals," he said.The Girl From Mars mural is a "shining light" in Downpatrick and was created by artist Marian No one aka Friz and her husband Gerry Norman

"The town rings through all of the early music, especially a song like Uncle Pat. You can hear a lot of Strangford Lough in that song. For McMurray the mural is more than just a reflection of the band's work, but also highlights a changing society. And over the course of 30 years together there have been many memorable songs and seven studio albums in a career that has taken the group around the world many times over.For the band, there's an acknowledgment that most don't make it this far."But we didn't really have a plan B. I certainly didn't see myself as being a French businessman - I was going to do French and business studies at university.
