Asher was born and raised in Bradford, England, but he developed a love for music and singing at the age of 16 and was originally hesitant to pursue a career in the music business since he had been bullied at school as a youngster.
In order to boost his self-esteem, Asher began working on his singing and performance skills at the age of 16. Asher Knight perfected his talent as a musician in London after relocating there to concentrate solely on music. Cut father, Mark Owen, Jon Maguire, Red Triangle, Olly Murs, James Blunt, and a host of other legendary songwriters have all collaborated with him on tracks.
Asher's career has also taken him on multiple tours across the length and breadth of the UK, supporting the likes of The Vamps, Boyzone, Steps, Will Young, All Saints and performing on globally recognised stages including O2 Arena, Manchester Arena, SSE Hydro, Eventim Apollo and O2 Shepherds Bush Empire
A sensation of 8 pop gems the 'Still Standing' EP assembles Knight'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.
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 instalment 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 instalment 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.
