UCHE YARA – SASHA (wake up!)

Before her debut single, UCHE YARA was already a festival darling, having secured over 45 appearances across Europe, including renowned stages like Les TransMusicales, Pitchfork London, and Wilderness. 

Now, at 21 years old, she’s back with two new tracks.

Titled ‘SASHA (wake up!)’, this latest offering encapsulates pure heat, wanderlust, and empowerment. Reflecting on her journey, UCHE YARA reveals, “I did the original vocal recording on my 19th birthday, full of excitement and self-confidence.” The song’s genesis occurred spontaneously in a Berlin studio, where UCHE YARA found inspiration while experimenting with a detuned, broken Saz. “I was jamming on a drum loop by Alex The Flipper,” she recalls, “and we initially wanted to make a Trap Beat for another artist from that material. But at some point, I just resonated so much with the feeling that I wrote the song structure, the guitar and bass line, and hook within 30 mins.“ SASHA (wake up!) is again accompanied by a more laid back piece of art named ‚Lazy Sundayz‘.
