Born and raised in Edmonton, Asim has been performing for local audiences since the age of 5, combining his talents in piano, guitar, and voice.  After completing his A.R.C.T. Performer’s Diploma with the Royal Conservatory of Music in Toronto in 2006, Asim began to focus heavily on his own music; since that time, he has built up a strong collection of original songs that bring a new innovative twist to folk pop music.

In the past year, Asim has performed at over 34 local events at venues which include Festival Place, the Winspear Center, Northlands Agricom, and Rexall Place. He has also had the opportunity to study, collaborate and perform with some of the music industry’s most accomplished musicians. This list includes Bobby Cameron, William Joseph and members of David Foster’s Band.

Outside of music, Asim volunteers regularly in his community as the lead advisor for the YMCA’s Youth Leadership Program, and was recognized by the Canadian Millenium Scholarship Foundation in 2007 for his work and leadership in the community, academic excellence, and achievements in music.

Asim is currently working on releasing his debut album in late 2010.
