Introducing... NewYorker45
NewYorker45, where do I even begin? Have you ever imagined walking down the streets of New York at night, with every street lamp shining bright and a saxophone accompanying your every move? Well, Asha Jonas, the lead singer of NewYorker45, certainly has. She shared, "I started the band after seeing cartoons on the road and thought, 'Damn, I need to stop watching cartoons.'" Growing up on classic Hollywood-style cartoons, she developed a passion for drawing funky things and making unique music. If you ever get the chance to see NewYork45 perform, we highly recommend it! They'll be playing at Box Park on April 27th https://www.skiddle.com/whats-on/Liverpool/Boxpark-Liverpool/Introducing-Sad-Girl-Studio/40864637/. It's always an honor to collaborate with the NewYork45 band and the amazing musicians in it. When we asked Ash about her unconventional stage setup, she responded, "All I need is a sax to get me going." She also expressed her desire to be part of a massive swing band with four trumpets and a full brass section, saying, "That would make me happy, but I'm fine with just producing the sound I want and playing it as a backing track." The NewYork45 band consists of Ash, a saxophonist, and the backing tracks that Asha Jonas creates at SGS. "I wouldn't have it any other way," she stated.
