Up front is the sound of the oud, sonically framed by bass & drums and freed by the improvisatory impulses of jazz. Usef’s sound is distinctly global, shades of grooves, oriental rhythms and electronic effects pepper his sonic stew.

Yasmine Hamdan first made waves in the music scene with the pioneering Beirut indie electronic duo Soapkills, which she co-founded with Zeid Hamdan in the late 1990s. 

Having moved to Paris in 2005, Yasmine collaborated with Madonna producer Mirwais for the Y.A.S. project, releasing the sleeky clubby Arabology album on Universal in 2009. Since then, she has earned international acclaim as a solo singer-songwriter and producer, elegantly entwining far-ranging elements, from pan-Arabic roots and pop and poetic lyrics, to electronica, soul and guitar melodies. Yasmine has collaborated with filmmakers such as Elia Suleiman, Jim Jarmusch, and has toured globally in support of her albums Ya Nass (2013) and Al Jamilat (2017). 

Her upcoming third album is scheduled for worldwide release in September 2025 on Crammed Discs/ [PIAS].
