Singaporean songwriter and producer Yeule (aka Nat Ćmiel) headlined the Fine Line Music Café, in Minneapolis, on Columbus Day, October 9th.
According to both Sasami and Yeule, the band almost didn’t make it to Minneapolis, as their tour bus broke down in Omaha, Nebraska, early in the morning of October 9th. In an emergency, they could only get a Toyota Corolla rental… which you would know is considerably smaller than a traditional tour bus. Everyone is cramped in the small car, with their instrumentals packed in a U-Haul trailer.
Somehow they were able to make it to the show, perhaps a tad later than they had anticipated, but they were happy to be in Minneapolis, at the Fine Line.
Opening the show was Sasami, playing solo. She’s normally with a metal band called Barishi (all of this was previously mentioned in Apr 2022: “Sasami came on stage slightly later than advertised. She’s dressed up in this outfit, and her live band is Vermont’s metal band Barishi.”
She confessed that she was nervous, not having a band to “hide behind.” Since she has to play guitar and serves as a one-woman-show, she decided that she was going to “experiment” with brand new songs that have never been released. Perhaps some of these songs will make it in a future album.
Shortly after Sasami exited the stage, Yeule came on stage, dressed in raggy white outfit, with Sasami and a drummer, also dressed in the same theme.
The trio wasted no time in kicking off their set with “bloodbunny”.
When Yeule put on her guitar for “4ui12”, she realized that “Someone stole my guitar picks.” Personally speaking, I do have some guitar picks in my wallet (I’ve bought them from merch or were given to me). Someone in front must’ve given her some picks, so the band could play.
You find out later that Yeule has never been to “this part of America” before. She’s referring to the Midwest, which is pretty expansive with long stretches of rolling hills and empty spaces. Basically, a lot of nothing, until you hit a major city, such as Minneapolis or Chicago.
It did sound like Yeule is enjoying her time in America, despite car breaking down and other hiccups in their tour.
Yeule’s new album softscars is out now on Ninja Tune.
