The band Itchyfeet will accompany her for the regatta performance, promising to make it another great regatta night.Asher Otto makes her home on the Caribbean island of Antigua where she was born and raised. She has developed over her career into a soulful artist who has been influenced over the years by artists such as Alicia Keys and Erica Badu.

The combination of talent and vocals brings a unique vibe to the stage and promises for a spectacular performance.
