Nigerian
born Paris-based soul singer, Asa, has released the much anticipated video to
the single "Satan be Gone" off her third album, Bed of Stone.
Currently
on a concert tour in Europe promoting the album, Asa unveils another facet of
her artistry with this new video.
Directed
by filmmaker Meji Alabi, music and visuals come together to present an
atmospheric video reminiscent of the American Deep South, as an intense Asa
dances alone in a Church to bring the song's story to life.
The
JM-produced track features a reverberating drumbeat and a driving guitar riff
that are a perfect foil for Asa's husky vocals, with lyrics sung in both Yoruba
and English.
Released
in August 2014, the singer performed songs from her third album, "Bed Of
Stone" for the first time in Nigeria at the prestigious youth event, The
Future Awards Africa (TFAA), for which she received a standing ovation. She has
received international acclaim for the album as well, with reviewer Anna-Bianca
Krause calling the album "beautiful, sensual and mature.
