I keep getting all kinds of great music sent to me but, as has been the case for the past five years, the amount of music I want to get to is far greater than the amount of time I have — and that’s especially true of the podcast, since I’m limited to five songs a week. So this marks the first Hey! Listen! column on Adobe & Teardrops, where I’ll tell you about songs that are fresh and now — and get to them on the podcast later.
I’ve written about Asher Brown‘s music from the jump, and it’s been a wonderful ride. Brown, who graduated from Berklee College of Music in 2013 with a degree in Songwriting, has a knack for tasty pop hooks. That’s evident on “Wash Me Clean” — but it also showcases Brown’s primary strength: lyrics that frankly address pain with tenderness. (Yes, yes, I know that’s overused in our community — but I think you’ll see I get a pass this time.)
In 2018, Asher toured extensively throughout Alaska, Canada, China, Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan as a solo musician supporting his debut album, Pitchforks. Now, back home in the Midwest, Asher is busy recording his second full length record, due out this summer.
