Gli Asia sono un supergruppo nato agli inizi degli Anni Ottanta e formato da membri di Yes, ELP e King Crimson.

Dediti a un AOR/prog-rock semplice ma di classe, negli anni hanno visto avvicendarsi diversi membri (soprattutto nel ruolo di chitarrista), consegnando alla storia buoni album come “Asia”, “Arena” o il più recente “Silent Nation”.

Dopo il sodalizio con Frontiers Music la band fa in tempo a pubblicare quattro full-length (di cui l’ultimo “Gravitas” è uscito nel 2014) e alcuni live (il più recente è “Symfonia”) prima della prematura scomparsa del fondatore John Wetton nel 2017.
