The Egyptian-born musician Ash does a lot on his own. The Cairo-based house music producer releases his material (including a new, debut full-length album, Self-Discovery), and blends the music of his hometown with electronica, house music, and even some of his multi-instrumentalist skills.

During a recent, sold-out gig in Egypt, Ash—born Ashraf Moawad—differentiated between saxophone, grand piano, guitar, and synthesizers, so if you’ve been waiting for a new and diverse one-man gig to roll into Ybor City, this is it.

Tickets to see Ash play Crowbar in Ybor City on Friday, March 1 are still available and start at $25.
