Since making her striking debut last year, twenty-one year old Austrian singer-songwriter UCHE YARA has proven herself a mighty tour de force. Invigorating, avant-garde and genre-bending, her inspirational sonic offerings know no bounds and presents her forthright, experimental flair to the highest degree. With influences spanning from Tierra Whack, James Blake and Tyler, the Creator, to Bilderbuch and Alex The Flipper, as well as a thirst to carve out her own niche, she has pioneered a remarkably fresh yet distinctive sound over the past eight months and her debut five-track-EP GOLDEN DAYS is no different.
GOLDEN DAYS, a diverse and bold collage of creations written over time, from naive adolescence to young adulthood, represents the rich tapestry of her life so far. Painted with a warm, youthful glow, UCHE hopes that listeners take this record as an encouraging tale of courage and foresight. Anything is possible; art knows no bounds and all emotions are valid. ‘I would love it if people felt inspired to embrace life and simply have a good time’, she shares.
UCHE YARA’s goal is to have listeners feel inspired, uplifted and understood, and with music this colourful, electric and unique, she is solidly marking herself as an artist to keep watch of.
The versatile artist Lukas Wandl from Vienna is not easy to define. He is a rap producer as well as a multi-instrumentalist and experimental R‘n’B singer. His work spans various genres, from electronic beats and soulful vocals from his solo releases to obscure samples and loops such as on the project Geld Leben with Crack Ignaz. After the success of his debut album It's all good tho and international shows, a focus on studio work followed and finally a return with the album Womb, released in 2020. His most recent releases, including the solo album Body Memory and the rap record Nackt, show his versatility as a singer and producer. The same applies to his musical future as well as to his improvisation-driven live shows: Wandl will continue to surprise.
Ivo Dimchev is a choreographer, performer and musician from Bulgaria. His work is an extreme and vivid mixture of performance, visual art, dance, theatre and music. He is known for his provocative works centred around sex, politics and physicality. Dimchev has performed on numerous stages and festivals worldwide and has released several solo albums.
