i love yeule so much!! theyre so underrated but im glad more and more ppl have been discovering them and liking their music! thanks for granting this platform for them to perform and for ppl to be able to see how talented they are 💖

[@FluffyBee5]

I found yeule in the 2020 lockdown so happy I found them and now I'll see them live in a few days and I am so excited

[@chloe-pf1bo]

I'm so happy to hear them in an interview ⁠♡

[@kateki8801]

wow I never heard of them but am already obsessed with the vibes. great interview in the end too, what a great bunch of humans

[@BuhosCuervos-ix5ku]

Yeule music is a favorite of mine, and I would appreciate it if you could contact Jasmine Sokko for a live session as well. Sokko is another talented artist from Singapore

[@Aphextwinflame]

Hell yeahhh Yeule

[@chucklohn522]

My first take on this was when I said “creepy” on a previous comment. But now I’m glad I came back and listened again.

[@bag12]

Kexp been on a role since Christian McBride 👍

[@no111re]

She really listens and lets the artist go whatever their head is, what a gem Waters is!

I discovered yeule very recently, just before softscars released, their music is so good. I want to see them live so badly.

[@poogedys8505]

Yeule is destined to be one of the legends from this time period of both electronic pop and alt-rock... they followed the blueprint Grimes (largely) helped establish in the early 2010s, and then arguably beat her at her own game several years later with Serotonin II, all self-produced, performed, and mixed at only 20 / 21 years old with a similarly sci-fi / cyberpunk / anime / Internet-inspired aesthetic, an emotional core, and a true gift for melody. Softscars is one of the best albums of 2023 and the Yeule live experience is even better in some ways than the album.

[@davidegiani2271]

Really arguably cause honestly I don't think that yeule have made albums as huge as Visions or Art Angels.

[@hipsternesto]

Time will tell but right now I think if Yeule keeps the momentum she will surpass Grimes who currently has lost direction

[@Wackaz]

I saw yeule live back at End Of The Road festival in August - it was a long-awaited music dream come true, as I had been a fan of them for years before that point but only listened to them through the internet. All the incredibly potent EPs yeule had made starting in 2014, as well their mesmerising, transcendental and oh-so-magical debut album in 2019, Serotonin II, changed my life. So to see yeule in-person, performing live back in August was surreal and ethereal - and what a show it was. yeule gave it their all! It's a shame not many fans like myself were in the audience, as I felt like it was only me who know their songs, sung along and cheered along to them, but I hope yeule knows how much that show meant to me and I'm sure many others, and that no matter where you go or where you perform, you'll always touch the hearts of people who appreciate and adore you. Thank you for all the wonderful music you have blessed us with, yeule - I personally couldn't be more grateful.

[@fonicaux]

Sulky baby makes me cry for no reason. It's amazing how music can affects us so much. I love Yeule.

[@zaraspook]

powerfull notes.

[@theebronks]

Yeule is so amazing. softscars doesn't feel like a complete departure but also doesn't sound like any earlier albums, a perfect evolution.

[@blogrocks]

To me this is one of the most intersting artist in his generation.

[@cryosadaessesaves1853]

I agree

[@andrenihilus]

I love Yeule so much. Their music has given me relief, realizing that there are other people feeling the same and creating around themes that are not easy to deal with. This session was something I was not expecting but I'm grateful it exists. I hope I can see them live one day

[@fugamantew]

This and Sasami's own Squeeze performance on KEXP are quite something. The future is bright in these two.

[@gausswerks2]

can't believe they can manage this polished and layered of a sound live at kexp. a lot of great bands come through kexp's live studio and bring a lot of energy and great sound, but its rare to sound this dialed in live imo

[@zeldafairy69]

Gosh I love Yeule’s music so much, I discovered their work around a bad period of my life and it really helped me out of it, Too Dead Inside, will always be the best song from them when I discovered them for the first time

[@JTB7]

Same.. the calm I feel from listening is such subtle beauty, it’s tranquility almost reminiscent of the death it inspires in me. It’s hypnotizing ❤

[@randymira.1315]

Yes. Im totally agree. For me is so similar. I found yeule in a really really bad period but in the same way... Was the best. Because I can saw things that I have change. I'm start to have the feelings of "I want the change" and yeule helps me a lot .

[@alexvietzke6027]

Had the pleasure of seeing Yeule in Boston when they came around! They were excellent and haunting, it was really cool how they snapped from distant puppet-robot mode to frantic rock powerhouse mode completely seamlessly and brought the audience with them!

[@baepkta]

Saw them live and met them after the show a few months ago wish I could re-live that night but at least I can watch this over and over

[@harveymoment]

God tier artist to see live, you won't regret it

[@vasheroo]

Yeule was great in Minneapolis. I also love Sasami who is playing in her band on tour and in this video.

[@pilartyping]

I wasnt sure if that was Sasami or just her doppleganger lol

[@LukaVibes]

OH MY LORD 😭😭😭 YEUUEELE IS GETTING THEIR DAMN MOMENT HELL YES I LOVE YOU!!

[@domcactus]

Nice I was waiting for dazies!!! Great set, vocals sound great live, and I love the aesthetics. One of my fav albums of 2023, easily!

[@infiernoinfierno9659]

Dazies is beautiful

[@ben_shooter_music]

Saw Yeule in October in NYC. Excellent show and Sasami is a killer guitarist as well

[@addison_deez]

omg hell yes!! softscars is my aoty i adore yeule sm

[@danibee535]

so so good - shoegaze lives on, and how! can i get an id on nat's guitar? just for curious nerd reasons. thanks.

[@danibee535]

@@wasteddimension thank you!

[@austins.2495]

I love Yeule, such a unique project. We need stuff like this

[@tsuyu19ku]

Great music Yeule. What a talented artist.

[@jackeckhart386]

So sad not to have the synths and bass players live.

[@synthxperiments3691]

I would have been so curious I'm seeing the synths interacting live

[@LordCargena]

I would like that they had someone playing the bass.

[@Bluustar225]

omg i never knew i needed yeule and sasami in the same room until today! thank you kexp

[@tomomyuu]

OH MY GOD YEULE ON KEXP!!!!!

[@uwza.]

this is just more proof to how talented they really are. YEULE SAVED MY LIFE 🗣🗣🗣🗣

[@brysonmichna730]

Yeule is shoegaze meets glitch. I thank her projects

[@narwhalofdeath3000]

I saw them play the night after this was recorded and it's sooooo cool to finally see this performance from earlier the same day! Thank you yeule, Sasami, and Fitness for being my favorite live band of 2023

[@Glazed4Dayz]

They are All Talented, Stay Blessed

[@celebound2625]

Angel cries, and cries, and cries

[@TempleOfTheMartyrs]

didn't even know this band existed...wow and more wow!!! blown away to say the least

[@ThePilonguy]

I love him he’s amazing

[@pilartyping]

yeule is a time machine in the best way possible

[@snicker-snee]

i saw yeule in NYC and i think their music is fantastic, but it doesn’t translate that well played live? but nat’s stage presence is obvious and commanding - i think they could transition to an early björk-like live show really well

[@elongatedborzoi1160]

always love to to see fellow non-binary musicians 🔥🔥🔥🔥 they're so good

[@pasyensyatv9092]

Oh wow! she is playing the iconic "Prince" Electric Guitar!

[@xc8217]

That's Edwards E-SRK-II. It's the signature guitar of Sakito, the guitarist from the Japanese rock band Nightmare.

[@humxnheart]

Te amo Yeule eres lo mejor que he descubierto ❤️‍🩹✨

[@randymira.1315]

Totalmente de acuerdo ❤

[@Moondustsmellsfunny]

they literally have an angelic voice.💫🧚‍♂

[@bruce-le-smith]

rad. also, love how kexp is getting this video format dialed in! totally complements jam in the van and npr tiny desk. honestly i could watch the same artist on all 3 and feel like i saw a totally different performance \ interpretation p.s. fuck yea Ryan, keep up the good influence! p.p.s. alt rock slash hard folk wouild fit perfectly at the Winnipeg Folk Festival!

[@sunbleachedguy]

I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!!! amazing performance as always, definitely one of the best albums of the year!!

[@moldyrosemary]

its cool to see sasami join new projects and do things apart from cherry glazerr. i hope they are thriving!!!

[@_d3adstar]

Is that how you pronounce this band? I always thought it was ye-ul-E not yule

[@ginafrey8095]

Thank you so much for having them on. They’re my artist of the year, totally hypnotized ❤!

[@charlesevepolaski7813]

now it totally make sense why don't be so hard on your own beauty feels more suitable to softscars than glitch princess.

[@dumpsterfornicia]

nat is so awkward and cute i love nat so much

[@zadventi3996]

YEULE ON KEXP??? THIS IS CRAZYYY I LOVE THIS SONG SO MUCH SOKEAOIJEIJEIOJaojeaadd

[@gjungart]

Been into them for a few years, and this is the first time I realize it's pronounced like yule, not yuley lol

[@ashleyohohoh]

I love her

[@Neckfat46290]

Aw yeule and I used to be mutuals on tumble back in the mid ‘10s. Love seeing the music evolve and continue.

[@DelilahsVibes]

I saw Yeule in Minneapolis and they were amazing! Perfect records and perfect live performances. ❤

I’ve always knew of yeule but I had the chance to see her at Portola when she released softscars. I fell in love with her album, persona, and she’s overall an amazing artist

[@theragingbull14]

Did they really put yeule's real name in the credits? I thought it was Nat.

[@l0l0jo]

I love the live version of software update, its so fucking good!

[@anthonynavarro3613]

Saw yeule twice this year. Wish is was more though❤

[@bloombergs3839]

Yeule is so underrated 😢

[@traverseandtrespass]

I only wish that the drummer will release something like “our love” , i dunno (please)

[@JosukeUrameshi]

it makes so much sense that "don't be so hard on your own beauty" was meant to be on softscars bc it totally goes so well with the sound. now she got me thinking if there's an easter egg in softscars?? 🤔 it all sonically sounds the same with the exception of the interlude which i doubt it is

[@brunopinguim0067]

Listening to yeule on repeat while painting, love love

[@zweaver9785]

forever grateful to be able to experience this music

[@andrewalbertson1]

There's always the question about how much is too much to put on a backtrack. But it definitely promises your gonna sound like the album live which is a good thing usually. Be curious how it'd be if they got 2 more band mates to make it all organically live. Cool stuff though! Edit: just got to the part of the interview where they mention being a solo Computer musician until this tour

[@Glock_Nico]

So glad I saw you all in Dallas! One of the best shows!

[@kalexander00]

They are soooooo fucking underrated!!!

[@jobul2444]

Absolument génial

[@davidboyle1984]

Softscars is the best album of 2023, hands down!

[@sydvxo]

so good and underrated ima gatekeep ts forever

[@valentinabm240]

te amoooooooo

[@The_Vigil_Creature]

I honestly thought Softscars was named as a way to say that Love is soft but also leaves you with scars which are painful. Truly beautiful music. I love Yeule! 🫀

[@kingbuzzo8703]

Who is playing the bass?

[@EvaQuielIon]

I LOVE THEM SO FUCKING MUCHHHHHH DAZIES IS ONE OF MY FAVE SONGS EVER THANK U SO MUCH
