'Five' is the magic number for singer-songwriter Asa

  • 2 years ago
Her distinctive blend of pop, folk, soul, jazz and reggae has become a firm favourite at home in Nigeria, and a regular on the radio here in France. Asa joins us from the studio in Lagos to tell us about writing and recording her fifth album as the world came to a shutdown. She tells us how reconnecting with nature created an uplifting mood on the album “Five”, and how she found inspiration through spontaneous, convivial collaborations with musicians like Wizkid, Amaarae and The Cavemen.
We also take a look at the latest release from Beach House, and check out the second joint project from Leon Bridges and Khruangbin.
