INTRODUCTION:

WHY limit ourselves to 'genre's' when GOOD music can come from anywhere, any time period, and anyone?

Hi my name is Yasna, and I am a multi-genre artist. I am a Japanese (日本人) and Afro-Caribbean (Trinidad/Tobago + Surinam) woman who grew up in a loving, hardworking immigrant household. As a person who belongs to so many communities and having an interdisciplinary skillset through various mediums + industries, I believe my strength is my authenticity, empathy, and ability to story tell/communicate. I am very passionate about bringing non-traditional stories to life through an authentic and unique lens.
