Interview with Asher Laub, Violinist & Entertainer

  • Summary

  • Asher began classical violin training at the tender age of
    2 and had already performed with the Buffalo
    philharmonic by age 13.
    Asher’s 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, the Jacob Javitz
    Center and across four continents. Asher has also been
    featured on PBS, and has made headlines on CNN,
    WABC, NBC, and the New York Post among many other major news
    sources. He has been booked to perform at special events for Google,
    Nickelodeon, TNT, National Geographic, Citigroup and a list of notables including
    George W. Bush, Ivana Trump and many others.
    In 2014 Asher lived a musician’s nightmare when he lost the strength to play his
    violin for a number of years. Refusing to accept conventional advice he found a
    way to heal, building his strength to an unprecedented level. He used this
    experience as fuel to reinvent his live concerts as a high-energy contemporary
    violinist. In only a few months, Asher learned to merge, popular tunes and
    breakdancing choreography into his performances.
    Asher also uniquely performs as a DJ violinist bringing his experience as a live
    performer and technical prowess as an audio editing and mixing guru to
    countless clubs and stages.
    Asher has been privileged to teach children and adolescents from under
    resourced neighborhoods in the Bronx for almost 4 years. This has fostered his
    drive to make a positive imprint on others.
    With a growing fan base in the tens of thousands, Asher is working to influence
    societal norms and conventional thinking about musical performance, helping to
    break down social and physical barriers for his fans and beyond.
