Yalla Miku

Yalla Miku blends Ethiopian krar tradition with a modified banjo, deep electric bass and experimental electronics to create a dialogue between the Horn of Africa and European experimental scenes. The ensemble’s music moves through trance, electronic pulses and suspended textures, with voices weaving in and out of dense sonic layers. Performers include Samuel Ades Tesfagergsh (krar, voice), Louise Knobil (electric bass, voice), Cyril Bondi (drums, percussion, voice), Emma Souharce (machines, synths, voice) and Cyril Yeterian (Ufo banjo, electric guitar, voice).
