She’s been writing and performing since 2013, but things really started coming together for her a couple of years back when she landed a place on Gilles Peterson’s Future Bubblers mentorship programme.
In the wake of the scheme, Yazmin self-released her debut EP, Black Moon, which led to a BBC Maida Vale session in late 2017 with Jordan Rakei, Moses Boyd, Oscar Jerome and Children of Zeus.
Since then, the music has come thick and fast, with a string of gorgeous releases for First World Records that blend funk, beats, jazz and Latin influences, including her latest, When the Sun Dips 90 Degrees.
She’s also been busy popping up for live appearances on Jazz FM, BBC Radio 4, 1Xtra and NTS over recent months, and has received heavy support from DJs Jamz Supernova, Tom Ravenscroft, Huey Morgan and Jamie Cullum.
