We are the A. Star family. Hello! We are a
sort of free form art collective in the northern Utah. OK,
here's the deal. We like music. We like books. We
like colors. We like Sun Ra. We like crystals. We like all
sorts of food. We like goji berries. We like the band called
Ganja Nation. Mostly, we just like really the raddest stuff
you can think of.
We are totally into community. Salt Lake has a pretty rad assortment of goings on and we dig it. We have a lot of ideas.

Ahspen
the debut mind blower from

To be honest, this isn't the best thing on A. Star. There's like a shaker thing at the beginning... Maybe I need to give it more time.

This one is a rad pop number, with a lot of religious undertones... it just may have you questioning why you became an atheist.
