Press About Rob the Rich
Left/Folk
"Rob the Rich is... a psychedelic blend of country tinged protest folk and meditative experimental post-punk. There are songs that center current political events, and songs that paint a new mythic context for the present. This album is a threatening avant-garde celebration of a possible future for America, and a great addition to the LEFT/FOLK narrative."

A Blaze Ansuz: Antifascist Neofolk
"The new 10-song release is a wonderful extension past the limits of antifascist neofolk, which has the effect of both expanding what we could expect from the band and the genre itself."
The Ark of Music
Passionate writing on the most important issues, quintessential folky sounds, and eclectic, electric production choices... this ten-track project is as haunting and ethereal as it is impassioned."
Ratings Game Music
"Ashera fearlessly talks about race, freedom, equality, politics, and more in Rob The Rich. They also do everything in their power to bless us with astonishing melodies, rousing harmonies, and unique vocal performances."
"Ashera has created a mouthwatering prospect for fans and a brilliant dreamscape with beautiful melody is on the cards."
-isStories
"Ashera has come with their latest album ‘Rob The Rich’ enriched with a leftwing perspective. It is a rebellion against the fascists through music... beautiful poetic vocals and hauntingly energizing melodies." ~Daily Music Roll

Biography

Ashera creates antifascist lullabies, multi-genre left/folk music with a focus on radical anti-fascist culture and politics. 
 

~~~~

​

Ashera is a post-American left/folk duo that blends hauntingly poetic ouiji board vocals and soft acoustic sounds with an industrial backdrop and radical left perspective. They released their debut EP, Antifascist Lullabies, in December 2019. Their second album, Rob the Rich, was released in December 2020.

~~~~

​

Ashera, a project by Justine Norton-Kertson, was born out of the revolutionary crucible in Portland, Oregon. Their music blends hauntingly poetic ouiji board vocals with dream folk, dark folk, and neofolk music that is channeled through a radical and revolutionary leftwing perspective to create what they refer to as antifascist lullabies: beautiful, soft, and soothing war music for the battle against the right. Ashera's music is a conscious contribution to the newly developing left/folk-antifascist neofolk genre of music, and to the development of a much needed culture of everyday antifascism in our society. 

 

Upon the December 2019 release of Ashera's debut EP, antifascist lullabies, neofolk blog A Blaze Ansuz: Antifascist Neofolk said, "They make war music for the battle against the right. Antifascist neofolk band Ashera is stepping out with their debut EP and making militancy their core value. This is a line
in the sand. 
Antifascist Lullabies is a Declaration of War."

 

Their second album, Rob the Rich, released on December 18, 2020.
