The Yussef Dayes Experience - Live From Mt. Fuji

1LP Vinyl - BWOOD436EP

Following the instant sell-out of "MT FUJI FM", a collector’s special edition vinyl experience Featuring Gilles Peterson, The Yussef Dayes Experience returns for LIVE FROM MT. FUJI on standard black vinyl, with music only.

The project includes live performances of both pre-released favorites and brand-new compositions, featuring the extraordinary Japanese vocalist / virtuoso Minami Kizuki from Amami Island, on vocals and Sanshin (a traditional three-stringed, long-necked instrument, unique to the region).

The collaboration was born in a moment of pure serendipity; the night before filming at Mount Fuji, Yussef expressed a desire to connect with a local Japanese musician, someone rooted in the islands’ sound and spirit. That led the band to Kizuki, whose ethereal musicianship brought an entirely new dimension to the music.

Yussef tells us; “she just came with her vibes, and we just tapped in. And it was literally that feeling of when you’re on edge and you’ve just got to be listening, you’ve got to be
in the zone, regardless of the circumstances. And, yeah. It was this beautiful moment, and she really blessed us with the vibes.”

LIVE FROM MT. FUJI is a sonic pilgrimage, a merging of cultures, rhythms, and stories, and stands as a testament to Yussef Dayes’ global musical vision.
