No other Indian artist in musical history has practiced greater freedom in her
musical choices than Asha Puthli.
Though Asha is a jazz improviser at heart, her major label recordings
reflect her wide-ranging aesthetic: she freely moves between Indian classical,
avant-garde jazz, traditional jazz, r&b, soul, funk, disco, rock, techno,
ambient, new wave, new age, Bollywood, and bhangra. The eclectic, often outré
artwork that graces her albums stem from her early interest in glam and glitter
rock. Her silken, ethereal soprano voice laced over dance beats created the
sonic template that would later rocket artists like Blondie and Donna Summer to
worldwide popularity. Yet Asha's recordings remain testaments to her pioneering
musical vision.

Asha has completed recording her new album which will be released in summer 2008.
