In March of this year, Sasami Ashworth—simply known as SASAMI in the music world—released her moody, beautiful self-titled debut on Domino Records. It’s a stand-up slice of indie rock, full of the introspective songwriting and airy electric guitar that’s so frequently lauded in the genre these days. Ashworth learned her rock chops while part of Cherry Glazerr, and combined with her distinct songwriting style (plus her always entertaining music videos), she brought a much-needed facelift to the singer/songwriter genre in 2019.
