Asher began to learn classical violin at the tender age of two and performed with the Buffalo Philharmonic by age thirteen. His expertise in improvisation across multiple genres has led him to a career as a soloist in demand, performing at venues such as Madison Square Garden, Hammerstein Hall, Lincoln Center, Carnegie Hall and across four continents. In 2014, Asher lived a musician’s nightmare when he confronted health issues that could potentially be life-altering. However, he saw this experience as an opportunity to reinvent himself to the high-energy contemporary violinist we see today. He blends popular tunes and break-dancing choreography into his performances which captivate his audience. Asher has also been featured on PBS, and has made headlines on CNN, WABC, and NBC and many other major news sources. Visit https://www.asherlaub.com.
