We are SO excited to welcome guitarist & composer Yasmin Williams to the SPINSTER fam, and announce that we'll be releasing her second LP, Urban Driftwood, on vinyl (including special limited edition "seaglass" vinyl), CD & digital formats on January 29, 2021, available for pre-order now on our Bandcamp.
With her ambidextrous and pedidextrous, multi-instrumental techniques of her own making and influences ranging from video games to West African griots subverting the predominantly white male canon of fingerstyle guitar, Yasmin Williams is truly a guitarist for the new century. So too is her stunning sophomore release, Urban Driftwood, an album for and of these times. Though the record is instrumental, its songs follow a narrative arc of 2020, illustrating both a personal journey and a national reckoning, through Williams’ evocative, lyrical compositions.
