New
Age Composer
Asher is a singer/songwriter who began by being
an instrumental new age composer back in
1987, recording several albums for New
World Music, some of which topped the
new age/ambient charts around the world,
like Open Secret, Mystic Heart and
Concert of Angels.
Beginnings & Early
Recordings
He began to improvise on the piano and play
by ear when aged 3 - so it has been a
while. His early recordings were produced by
footballing and cricketing buddy, Anthony
Phillips, who was a co-founder of Genesis. Later new-age offerings were
produced by Phil Thornton, at his studio in
Bexhill.
Spiritual
Leanings
He started to add lyrics from a spiritual
perspective, which at the time was unique
in the new-age field. These days he is more a
mainstream balladeer singing love songs in
the great troubadour tradition... songs of
romantic, courtly, spiritual and mythic
love.
Singing Stone Music
Having had a long association with New World Music, Asher
now puts his albums out on his own label, Singing Stone Music,
and these are distributed by Voiceprint Records.
