California SASAMI (Sasami Ashworth) steps into the spotlight as a pop star with her album Blood On the Silver Screen, out now via Domino.
On her third album, SASAMI was inspired by various pop acts such as Britney Spears, Lady Gaga, SIA, Kelly Clarkson, Katy Perry, and HAIM. SASAMI is a conservatory-trained classical French horn player, producer, and composer who is constantly reimagining what it means to be an artist.
“This album is all about learning and respecting the craft of pop songwriting, about relenting to illogical passion, obsession, and guiltless pleasure. It’s about leaning into the chaos of romance and sweeping devotion—romanticism to the point of self-destruction.”

Blood On the Silver Screen has an addictive and raw edge, much like its 2010s pop inspirations. Cinematic ballads with spiraling guitars and catchy hooks, SASAMI created an album that is an experience, not just songs stitched together.
“I wanted to go all out with this album. wanted to, in my tenderness and emotionality, have the bravery to undertake something as epic as making a pop record about love. I hope it makes people feel empowered and embodied, too. It’s important to not box yourself in.”
