That’s right folks, Asa has done it again with his latest self-produced album ‘Revelry Road’. Recorded live over 5 days in the farmhouse where Asa grew up on the Sunshine Coast. It builds on his previous work by seamlessly combining full band tracks and solo acoustic songs showing the true depth of his songwriting and musicianship. You may say it is a Rock and Roll Record with a hint of Folk but it has elements of Blues, Country and even a bit of Calypso?
This album also features some of SE Qld’s finest musicians on instruments such as Cello and Piano and an appearance on Guitar by one of Australia’s most revered artists; Mark Lizotte (Diesel).
‘Revelry Road’ will be officially launched at the Brisbane Powerhouse on July 5, available in record stores and on iTunes July 6 through Vitamin Records followed by a string of club and festival dates…..details below.
