Since their inception in 2015, Asi Fui (Long Beach, CA) has brought their lush, sonic, beat-driven textures to many ears across Southern California. Atmospheric arrangements suspend Tatiana Velazquez’s (singer/keyboardist) soulful voice while listeners ponder her hard earned lyrics. Drummer Ryan Reiff’s stylistic range creates a canvas using intricate psych and Afro-influenced beats. And Miguel Vasquez(guitar) authentically weave elements of sonic gold to complement. 

Velazquez’s grandmother used to write on photos of her youth signing “asi fui” with what she was doing the moment the photo was taken. It translates to “this is how I was/went” in spanish. The name has become a statement of how the group remains present in the moment, while being able to reflect on the past, and the songs becoming a captured timestamp.

Over the 11 year span, Asi Fui has released three EP’s, “Live: Fernet Session”, “Gold”, “What’s the Best That Can Happen”, two full length albums “Parallelogram” and “Say So” (released in Nov. 2025 by Unit E Records) + 10 music videos conceptualized and directed by the front woman.
