Jamila & The Other Heroes are the new, wild and lively band, based in Berlin that have come together to make raw, energetic and funkadelic music to make you fly. 

Leading the band is the vibrant, Jamila Al-Yousef.  Born in Berlin the day the Berlin Wall fell and raised by her influential Palestinian refugee father, Jamila’s cultural activism and strong will to positively change the world is drawn deep into her artistic expression. Jamila’s songwriting style delves into her drive for change and merges soul, funk, rock and Arab folklore and hones her skills on-stage and in the studio. In 2016, The Other Heroes joined Jamila’s vision on cultural activism and blends an energetic, soul arrangements into a sound that is earning considerable buzz and a loyal local following.  Combining Jamila’s powerful lead vocals, The Other Heroes carefully produced, funky guitar work and percussion styled sounds has left sold out audiences in awe and is catching the attention of audiences around Germany, Europe and Middle East.

Jamila & The Other Heroes have spent 2016 developing their sound and is set for a big 2017.  With the release of their Debut EP set for Summer 2017 they are bringing their colourful live show around Europe this summer and are here, ready to party.

In my music, I improvise with guitar, piano, voice and atmospheric sounds around me, leaving my productions usually raw and in form of sketches waiting to be explored and open to continuation. My songs often resemble sonic meditations and work best with headphones / good speakers, a cup of coffee or tea and sitting or walking amongst trees or along a wide shore in a contemplative mood. 

Beyond music, I interrogate the poetic life through various artistic mediums and by creating atmospheres, experiences and creative adventures with artists from across disciplines and geographies. 
I'm currently working on a film exploring our relationship to aging, death, beauty and the power of presence with my mother who is on a journey with dementia. 
Having lived and worked on five continents, I am now back in Berlin as my main base.
