Even though the former Albany band, Method of Groove which used to be fronted by Ashton Holmes is no longer together, they are still a popular band today. I get a lot of e-mails by fans who are women, trying to get a hold of a Method of Groove CD. I still do have their CD that was released way back, but I refuse to burn copies of the CD and mail ’em out to people. Why is this you may ask? It has to do with “copyright” for their music. I don’t want to get sued by Ashton Holmes or any of their former band members, that’s what I’m afraid of. I respect band copyright and you should too.

Last year, Method of Groove reunited for a one time only appearrance as an acoustic gig at Valentine’s in Albany, N.Y. Their reunion was an instant hit and that performance is still getting a lot of responses to this day.

Could a full time Method of Groove reunion happen in the future??? Maybe. Who knows….but I doubt it. I believe Ashton lives in California, concentrating on his acting career. The only reason the Method of Groove reunion happened here ’cause Ashton was visiting friends and family for the Holidays. Maybe there will be a few more MOG reunion shows in the future, next time Ashton is in the area, who knows. Just don’t expect a full album release and a full time tour.

I would love it if Method of Groove came back full time with new album and tour…I just don’t see it happening. Ashton’s too busy with his acting career and it looks like he wants to be an actor more than a musician. I would love to get the Method of Groove CD online in MP3 for the fans to hear, sure, but I need to contact Ashton and the band first for their permission. I just don’t know how to get a hold of Ashton personally, so I apologize for the fans.

I’m sure the band members themselves are flattered that they are still loved today and they probably thought no one cared for them anymore, lol. I’ll try to find a way to get a hold of Ashton but it might be difficult.
