Asher Knight – Amnesia (Club Tour Remix)
Bradford-born singer-songwriter Asher Knight releases his highly anticipated debut EP ‘Still Standing’, this February 18th. A sensation of 8 pop gems the ‘Still Standing’ EP assembles Kinght’s remarkable proficiency of producing hit after hit. With vulnerable lyricism alongside bouncy melodies, the EP twists and turns in a mirror image to Knight’s experience of friendship and romance, experiences that inspired many of the tracks on this project.
In his own words, Knight explains; “Over the period of writing these songs I aimed to show a glimpse into my life. Listening to this EP follows the ups and downs of friendships and relationships that can be tough but something we all experience. Naming it Still Standing, because after all the difficult and happy times I’m still strong and moving forward” Captivating his audience from the get-go, tracks on the EP released in 2021 gained a remarkable amount of attention making the year ahead of an exciting one for Knight. The first installment to the project, ‘Alone’, was a gentle and sincere hand from Asher.
Characteristically wearing his heart on his sleeve, the track sees him open up about feelings of unworthiness in love. The music video tallied up an astonishing 490,000 + views on YouTube, encapsulating his artistry style straight away. Soon followed by, ‘Burn’, another track exploring the less desirable side of love, it unveils the toxicity in a turbulent relationship. Its irresistibly catchy tendencies accumulated just under 750,000 streams collectively.
‘Too Much To Ask For’ came as the third installment to the EP at the start of November, further proving the vibrations of Asher’s beat blazing capabilities. The pop melody echoes a void of heartache about finding love, lyrically laying his emotions before us. Telling the tale about the love a little further down the line, ‘Amnesia’ denotes attempting to forget a toxic relationship. Crammed with colorful chords and unguarded feelings, the song apprises a powerful position in love. Closing 2021 on a high, single ‘By The Way’ landed at the end of November and stood as a firm reminder of Knight’s natural ineptness at songwriting. Built around a feel-good guitar lick and a marching rhythm section, the single feels impulsive and optimistic as he raises his game again. Speaking on the track, Asher explains; “‘By The Way’ goes through the emotions and situations we experience during being in love which can be an intense emotion that drives you crazy at times taking you on many twists and turns”.
Embarking on his 2022 journey, the final release before the EP, Knight’s latest playful pop single ‘Survive’ (released 20th January) follows the theme of heart-rending love but the unpredictable side. In his own words, Knight explains; “Being in love isn’t straightforward always, scared that possibly the person you love isn’t feeling the same and wanting reassurance. ‘Survive’ touches on the fact that you don’t know what you will do without the person you love.”
The final release day additions, singles ‘Follow you’ and ‘Amnesia’ (Club tour mix) close the project. ‘Follow you’ is an optimistic send-off from Knight, driven by a humbling hook the track expresses his devout loyalty and implicit infatuation. Meanwhile, opening Asher’s music up to a totally brand new audience, the ‘Amnesia’ (Club Tour Mix) is unquestionably one to fill a dance floor. Co-writing the ‘Still Standing’ EP with many industry greats including renowned John Newman and writer/producer duo Red Triangle, known for their work with KSI, Charlie Puth, Little Mix, James Arthur, and Camilla Cabello, Knight has the endorsement of some of the biggest names in the music scene right now. The EP marks the first of many expertly crafted projects to come for the sensational songwriter, setting 2022 in his sights for success.
Alongside the EP release, Knight will be supporting the fast-rising boy band Here At Last on their Manchester (O2 Academy) and London (O2 Academy Islinghton) dates, playing a setlist of his love-laden singles bound to capture hearts.
