One To Watch - Asa

Asa is a 25 year-old singer/songwriter from Nigeria who will soon be releasing a debut album in Britain. Her sound is a kind of acoustic raggae-pop which I can see being a big hit this summer.

Asa's currently undertaking an epic European tour which includes stops in the UK (London & Manchester to be exact). She'll also be performing on Jools Holland tomorrow evening - a move that always seems to mark an artist's entrance into the mainstream conscience.

So, check her out. Then be sure to tell everyone you heard it here first! Click here to visit Asa's myspace.
