Born in London to a British mother and Norwegian father, Sasha began playing the ‘cello and writing, recording and performing her own songs at an early age. This year, Sasha will release her debut album – knots and do-nots – a collection of songs that entice us on an adventure to the frontiers of song and psyche.
 
Sasha studied music at Cambridge and Harvard and by her early twenties, she had written music for the London Symphony Orchestra, The Royal Opera House, Rambert Dance Company, Opera North, The Aldeburgh Festival, Le Nouvel Ensemble Moderne, Neue Vocalisten Stuttgart, The London Sinfonietta, and the London Philharmonic Orchestra. In 2010 she became one of the youngest people to win a prestigious British composer award.
 
Sasha has also participated in a range of collaborations with electro artists including Samson of bpitch control – who she met while living in Berlin in 2009 – and has performed her songs at venues across Europe, including the Royal Opera House, London; HBC, Berlin; Le Poisson Rouge, NYC.
