SASAMI, the musical moniker of Sasami Ashworth, has emerged as a compelling force in the indie rock scene with a blend of ethereal vocals and a wide array of sonic textures that seamlessly blend rock, electronic, and classical influences. Before embarking on a solo career, SASAMI made her mark in the music world as a classically trained French horn player and a keyboardist for the Los Angeles-based rock band Cherry Glazerr. Her transition to a solo artist was marked by the release of her self-titled debut album in 2019, which garnered critical acclaim for its introspective lyricism and innovative soundscapes.

Following her debut, SASAMI continued to evolve her sound and delve into more thematic and sonic complexities with releases such as "Squeeze," "The Greatest / Skin A Rat," and "Toxicity." Her music often explores themes of emotional vulnerability, self-reflection, and the human experience, showcased through a lens that is both intensely personal and universally relatable. Tracks like "Tried To Understand" and "Make It Right" exemplify her ability to balance raw emotional content with experimental music production. With a growing discography that challenges genre boundaries and a reputation for dynamic live performances, SASAMI has solidified her position as a distinctive and innovative voice in contemporary music.
