TERRITORIES: NORTH & SOUTH AMERICA

Y.O.G.A. is a blend of my passions for electronic and country music. It all started with crafting Western scores, inspired by the likes of Townes Van Zandt and Tracy Chapman. Over time, my sound has evolved, incorporating more electronic elements while staying true to its roots.

Originally a live set, I've expanded to include country remixes in my DJ performances. The essence of Y.O.G.A. is to create a Western soundtrack for electronic audiences and beyond, maintaining an authentic fusion of both genres. I strive to avoid any sense of a half-baked cross-train gym mashup; electronic music is my trade, and country music is my passion, I would hate to do either genre an injustice.

Beyond the music, my agenda is about destigmatizing conversations around mental health. It's great to have fun and share positive energy with your mates but it's just as great to talk about what's happening. I lost a best mate when I was 17 and it was without a doubt the hardest time in my life. I've dedicated a monthly mental health story on my Instagram where musicians and friends alike can share their own mental health stories. People need to see that with a little hard work and opening yourself you can almost always combat depression. I strive to normalize discussions and I've spoken at mental health conferences, podcasts, radio, and TV shows, advocating for open dialogue.

On Instagram, I host a monthly mental health story series, encouraging musicians and friends to share their experiences. It's crucial to show that with effort and vulnerability, depression can often be overcome. At Y.O.G.A. shows, the vibe is always positive, inclusive, and fun. I even bring drag queens dressed as cowgirls for festival performances, creating an environment where everyone feels comfortable letting their guard down. I couldn't be happier with what is happening and am excited about where things are going.
