Yumi Zouma
Listen to Alena
Yumi Zouma began as a project in 2013 between close friends from Christchurch, New Zealand. Following an exchange with the Cascine
label, the far-flung New Zealanders were encouraged to divulge the creations from their hard drives, and in January 2014, their debut EP was released, inspiring the band's repeated climbs to #1 on the Hype Machine, a sell-out of two pressings of the record, and a collaboration with former
Gothenburg heroes, Air France.
That spring, Yumi Zouma took their once-withdrawn project to sold-out theaters across Australia supporting Chet Faker, to club shows in North America, and to festivals throughout Europe. The band was then chosen by Lorde to open for the star on her arena tour of New Zealand.
Yumi Zouma now return with their much-anticipated second EP, bookending their era of intimate short-form releases. International tour dates are currently being routed. More information is found at www.yumizouma.com.
