Yasmin Williams- Acadia
SKU: 075597902518
140G, Black, Single jacket with printed inner sleeve
Yasmin Williams is an acoustic fingerstyle guitarist and film composer. Pitchfork tapped her as one of "25 young and new artists who are shaping the future of music." She has an unorthodox, modern style of guitar playing and utilizes various techniques including alternate tunings, percussive hits, and lap tapping in her music to great effect. Her “radiant sound and adventitious origins have made her a key figure in a diverse dawn for the solo guitar” (The New York Times). Williams’s music has been described as rich, harmonious, and “in a lot of ways, the joy and possibility she brings to the guitar reminds me more of Eddie Van Halen than any of the other fingerstyle guitarists to whom she's compared” (NPR Music). Acadia marks her Nonesuch debut and the first time she performs with additional musicians, including vocalists. Guest artists include Darlingside, Kaki King, William Tyler, Dom Flemons, Aoife O’Donovan and others. She was hand-picked to open the Fall co-headlining tour with Brittany Howard and Michael Kiwanuka, which kicks off just after the album is released.
