Asma has worked on and off as a professional musician in Chicago. In the nineties, he played regularly at Buddy Guy’s Legends, and toured with Buddy, in the Blues band Howard and the White Boys. After that he worked in the Acid-Jazz scene, in a band called Peking Turtle, and in more recent years he has released solo recordings (under the Academy of Fists record label). He also plays in an acoustic swing quartet, called Doctor Swing, that specializes in 1930s music.
