about
Originating from Wichita, Kansas, musician Yasmin Nur and her bandmates, Carson Danks and Joshua-Joseph Mansolf. The Mez is set to host a night of female empowerment through rock. Nur said she and her crew craft songs that glide across genre barriers and aim to make the listener feel energized, drawing inspiration through various 90s girl bands. The result is a genre-bending sound with loose boundaries Nur calls alternative rock, though her songs often combine sounds from a wide range of inspirations. Wichita based artist, Yasmin Nur, carries a certain tinge of anger that doesn’t come off as an adolescent rant, but almost as a reminder of where the artist stands. Nur’s collection, which spans about three years, is filled with these hot colored jolts, with “Mother” and “Bad Tattoo” rounding as past personal favorites. Continuing Nur’s firm disposition comes the artist’s latest track “Voodoo Doll.” And not to be on one of those writers who instantly describes an entirety of sounds with one era and uses that era as in fact a genre, but without much pondering it’s easy to hear how saturated that track is with grunge and alt-metal inspiration that is cherished in its most loved home of the ’90s.
