Yuuf Share New Single “Iman” From EP Alma’s Cove out 20TH June on Technicolor
May 20, 2025 – Today, 4-piece instrumental band Yuuf share a new single “Iman”, the second single to be shared from their forthcoming EP ‘Alma’s Cove’ out 20th June 2025 on Ninja Tune imprint Technicolour.
Spanning 5 tracks, ‘Alma’s Cove’ is a meditative soundscape which takes the listener on a sonic journey through nature, connection and togetherness away from the stresses of day-to-day life. “Alma’s Cove is a dreamy tropical space free from stress, where you can feel content and present. A sheltered paradise to enjoy at your own leisure” the band comment. “When writing the EP the main goal was to create a space that’s the complete opposite of our London life: stress, anxiety, overwhelm. Reconnect to nature and enjoy the present. A dreamland”
“Iman” invites the audience further into the serene world of Alma’s Cove. "It sets the intention and the space we wanted to explore for the rest of this project” Yuuf comment. “We wrote it over just 2 days and recorded a demo live version in Eastbourne right next to the coast in the beautiful Italian Gardens. Iman resembles a deepening of our friendship as a band, becoming a family and really coming together as a group of people, not individuals and aligning with the same values and vision as people and musicians”
“Iman” follows on from the release of the EP’s title track “Alma’s Cove”, rich with organic textures, shimmering details and psychedelic rhythms.
Mixing international sounds and global influences is central to Yuuf’s ethos. Even its members all hail from different parts of the world – Switzerland, Denmark, France and England. “We naturally blend our diverse musical tastes from around the world to shape the sound of our music”. ‘Alma’s Cove’ is a prime example of this, inspired by classical Spanish guitar, Americana soundscapes and the music of Studio Ghibli.
Yuuf kick-off a UK tour in May, with multiple stops at various summer festivals including Wide Awake Festival, Green Man Festival, Lost Village Festival and Psych Festival. Full tour dates below. The band released their debut EP ‘In The Sun’ in Summer 2024 which has already gained over 1.5M streams on Spotify alone and received support from the likes of BBC 6Music, KEXP, KRCW and IG platform Somewhere Soul (919K followers). Released alongside the EP ‘The Sun’s’ viral live session video now has an impressive 1.8M views, 84k likes and 4k comments on YouTube.
