Yohimbe Brothers September 15, 2007

The Yohimbe Brothers is an electronica world music mash-up group, with elements of Salsa, Brazilian, American disco, R&B and black rock surrounded by turntable manipulations, samples and loops. The group features Vernon Reid (guitar & laptop), DJ Logic (turntables & samples) and others. Weaving Persian melodies and poetry into a lush soundscape, New York-born vocalist Haale and her band craft an hypnotic aural experience that pays homage to Sufi musical traditions while courting tribal beats and fresh electronic sounds. Prepare to be transported somewhere precariously yet beautifully balanced between the ancient and modern, East and West.
