Sasha Campbell performing with U2

Sasha Campbell is a well known singer and performer here in Costa Rica who has worked hard to launch her career and a few months ago moved to USA to continue looking for the fame and recognition she deserves.

 

With a sweet and lovely voice the young performer took a chance and sent all her material to the very well known Irish band U2 and her efforts paid up: Sasha Campbell will be performing with the band during their 2009-2010 world tour in 250 concerts in many different locations such as Ireland, Brazil and Asia. To the exciting news all she could do was scream and jump.

 

In Costa Rica, arts locally are not taken so seriously and although there is a small group of people who follow them and support them it is really hard to see a Costa Rica performer go that far. Sasha Campbell does have the talent to that talent in Costa Rica is serious and impressive. Other great performers from who had made international appearances are the MTV Latino winners Le Pop, the metal band Sight of Emptiness who played in Europe and Gandhi who has been part of the music scene for over 12 years now.

 

It is very rewarding to see a Costa Rica performer prove that there is more than tourism here and put the name of the country out there, I really hope she has a blast during this tour with U2 and other bands and artists in Costa Rica work as hard as her to make their dreams come true, after all how many people can say they were chosen by Bono himself to perform in a world tour with U2?

 

UPDATE: The Costa Rica artist was scammed by a false publicist who actually has several issues with U2’s label. Sasha Campbell will not be performing with U2 at least for the moment.
