Featuring YAO. A  multi talented artist, poet, passionate advocate for the quest for knowledge through literature and music, YAO is comparable to a modern-day troubadour. Although his music is characterized by a sweet mix of Slam poetry, Jazz and Blues, his eclectic approach and escapades in various musical genre gives it a rich, unique and very pleasant sound. His lyrical style is inspired by his texts—poems and short stories intended to be set to music and sung. The power of this musical approach, he explains, is that its origins in language give it a particular character marked by compelling imagery, fluid style and rhythmic variation.
