Los Angeles-based singer-songwriter Asia Chow was raised on a steady diet of Mahler and 70s rock. Although the artist now makes music that lies at the intersection of folk, country, and nostalgic pop. Post-college in New York, Chow continued to hone her songwriting craft while also working as a model to support herself and her music. Heavily influenced by her studies as an English major, Chow writes, produces, and performs music that aims to underscore the power of words. Asia Chow stepped triumphantly out into the indie-folk scene with her debut single “Days Unchanged” at the end of 2023.
Her first delicate and confessional offering won the praise of Vogue China and Flaunt, as well as editorial support on Spotify’s Fresh Folk and Today’s Singer-Songwriters, as well as Apple Music’s Breaking Singer-Songwriter and Acoustic Memories. Relying on her own tenacity and the creative community that surrounds her, Chow’s first release created ripples much larger than she could have initially imagined.
Check out Asia Chow latest release. It’s a cover of The Weeknd’s “Save Your Tears.” Guided by her emotionally charged vibrato that swells to fill the entire universe, and a forlorn lap steel guitar that tugs at the heart, Chow’s reimagining of this pop staple truly reinvents it. “I was listening to the song and was struck by the contrast of the more upbeat pop vibe and the sadness of the lyrics,” Chow shares. “I thought it would be interesting to try an alternative version — one that aims to highlight the more desperate voice the words can communicate.”
