In one box she drew an astronaut. Another, a scientist. The last, an artist. Who knew that this kindergartner’s dream would later be her reality? On September 3, 1986, Asha “BOOMCLAK” Santee was born with a beat in her heart and has been rocking to it ever since. Following in the footsteps of her father, who played the drums for their local church, Asha started playing at the age of 6. The entrepreneurial bug bit her early and, at 14, she was teaching drums to kids in her neighborhood. Asha Santee’s passion for music and art has taken her all over the world, as she has been an asset to several bands across the DMV such as The Peace & Body Roll Duo BOOMscat, The CooLots, The Huda Asfour Trio, Grammy-Nominee Carolyn Malachi, and Grammy Award-Winning, Mya. Asha currently has three solo projects on all streaming platforms including her latest release, GINKGO. Patience is a creator, actress, vocalist, Reiki practitioner and writer native to Washington, D.C; a creative with a passion for the spoken word and sound healing.
