Sixth & I recently launched a new Living Room Sessions virtual concert series designed to spotlight local musical talent during the coronavirus emergency lockdown. Shows stream for free on the venue’s Facebook page.

Catch DC drummer Asha Santee in the next Living Room Session on Friday, April 17, via Facebook Live.

Asha “BOOMCLAK” Santee is a percussionist, producer, vocalist, educator, and audio engineer with a propensity for infectious beats. The San Francisco native has been drumming since the age of six, taking after her father who played drums for their local church.

Now based in DC, the Howard University alumna is an asset to several acts across the region including The Peace & Body Roll Duo BOOMscat, The CooLots, Band of Roses, The Huda Asfour Trio, and Grammy Award-winning singer Mýa. Asha has released three solo projects including her latest, GINKGO.

Stream GINKGO by Asha Santee on Spotify:

Offstage, Asha designs and creates musically-inspired clothing, accessories, and jewelry and provides affordable music education for kids and adults through her affiliate program Bangin’ with BOOMCLAK.

Sixth & I is splitting any donations received from the livestreams with the artists.
