Asa Ransom is a 5 piece band living in New York City. Since their conception and first performance in June 2008, the band has recorded two EP's, played over 50 shows in NYC, completed a 4 month/80 date US national tour (including SXSW dates), appeared on numerous BBC radio shows (including BBC 6: Music First and BBC 6: Freak Zone), performed Live on WFMU NY, performed on Fox's nationally syndicated music program Fearless Music and wrangled in a slew of US and UK press (NME.com, NY Press, SF examiner, LA underground, FlavorPill Chicago, Manchester Music and much more). No small task for a completely independent band in it's first year, but don't expect them to slow down! With word of the bands electifying sets and their brilliantly unique and uncomprimised sound spreading fast, Asa Ransom has seen crowds of 20 people grow to crowds of 200 people across the country.
The sound of Asa Ransom is difficult to pin down. Balanced on a minimalist structure their precise, dance-inspired and ornamental style of instrumentation is upbeat and delivered with vibrant intensity. Vocals drift through an epic of phantom sounds and sudden garland. Melodic bass and feral drums rumble under chiming guitar and percussive keyboard, conjuring at once memories of the east and textures of the future.
With the release of their second EP, THE GOLD EP, Asa Ransom will embark on a 4 month US tour in October, 2009, including a 3 night run at Chicago's EP THEATER and a month long residency in Los Angeles.

You may not know it now, but you will come to know this band. You will come to love this band- I have. Probably the best new vocalist of the year for me already. So good, that I can't put a finger on what it reminds me of, but there is a reminiscent charm to this bands music that feels like old lover you can't wait to fuck again. I'm actually serious about that...
