Black Yaya is a new singer-songwriter, although he’s not new to the world of singer-songwriters. Indeed, he used to write, record and perform under the name Herman Dune. After travelling the seven seas and beyond with Herman Dune and recording more than ten albums with that band, David Ivar, for it is he, decided he wanted to create something new, so Black Yaya was born.

Buzzard Lope describe themselves as “an alternative trio from London, Birmingham and Brazil, hammering against ivories and catgut and rawhide.”
