Akasa's Bio

Akasa is a singer,  songwriter and performance artist. Her cross genre music expresses the fusion of Pop, Rock, World, Jazz and Classical music. Akasa's sonic vision is to serve as a bridge between all of the world's cultures, to show the beauty of our diversity, and to help promote a greater awareness of our similarities. Akasa sings in a variety of languages (including Latin, Native American, English and her own original vocalization). Akasa's vocalizations are ethereal, mystical and enchanting. Her music was inspired by her life experiences in exploring the depth of the individual psyche and finding the meaning and possibility in human experiences. In some of her songs, she used her imagination to paint a sonic journey into the cosmos and the unknown realm. Akasa has released her fourth album "Portal" collaborated with Morris Hayes (Prince's keyboardist, Chaka Kahn, Martika, George Clinton), Nick Michaels (Pete Townsend, Robert Calvert of Hawkwind, Tara London), Shenkar (Shakti, Frank Zappa, Sting, Yoko Ono) and more. "A unique and compelling novo Gothic, Gregorian mind theater wrought of Mahler, Messiaen, Enya, De Machaut, Florid Kautische, Annie Lennox and more... Akasa's music is exalting and contemplative." - Folk & Acoustic Music Exchange

"Akasa's rich voice reaches out, enticing you to become involved, to really listen and be immersed in the music which is being created. Mystical and diverse... Unexpectedly, the music flows across many genres from spiritual to classical, a touch of the pulse of the gypsy, a dash of Gregorian chanting; rhythms and concepts from many other influences and times are blended into a musical sojourn. Very beautifully, unexpected. " - Bluewolf Reviews

"Akasa's album Portal destroys every notion of what great music should be" -John shelton Ivany's Top CD of the Week

"It is best to approach Akasa's music like a dream -- let it take you where it will. It can be very trance-like as her voice soars and swirls around you. The way the music is mixed with her voice echoing and shimmering gives it a sound quite unlike anything else out there. "


- Magle Intsernation Music Forums
"Akasa's dreamy, echoing, floating vocals create a special effect that transports the listener to an altered state of consciousness. There also are elements of gypsy, Eastern, Middle Eastern, Rock, Native American and numerous other influences. Her voice can make a deep-throated animalistic statement or soar to the stars at a pitch so high it threatens to become ultra-sonic. But perhaps her strongest attributes are her passion and warmth." - Lunch -Relevant reviews by real people
