Mia Asano is an electric violinist from Denver, Colorado. Classically trained from the age of five, she developed a love for alternative styles of music early on and plays a variety of music styles including rock, pop, metal, electronic and celtic music on a seven string electric violin. Gaining recognition in the Colorado fashion industry at the age of fifteen, Asano began performing and modeling at a variety of events around Denver on her electric violin. She went on to attend the Berklee College of Music as a dual major in violin Performance and Professional Music (with concentrations in business and songwriting,) graduating in August of 2022.

During her junior year of college, she began posting short videos on TikTok and Instagram to practice her recording/mixing and video editing skills. One of the early videos went viral, gaining over 10 million collective views in less than a week on multiple social media platforms. Since then, Asano has had global success with other covers and has translated that to her live shows, collaborating with artists and friends such as Two Steps From Hell, Dragonforce, Tina Guo, Kiki Wong, MALINDA, Grace Kelly, Leo P, Avi Kaplan, the Red Hot Chilli Pipers, and going on a sold out duo headliner tour with viral bagpiper Ally the Piper in April 2023.
