ABOUT

YATTA is a Sierra Leonean-American artist and composer whose work spans experimental music, performance, installation, sculpture and sound art. Their music blends textural electronic elements, looped vocals, and rich storytelling, rooted in improvisation, humor, and surprise.

They have performed at MOMA PS1, The Kitchen, Sonic Acts Festival, and New Forms Festival, and have shared stages with artists such as Beverly Glenn-Copeland, Cardi B, Laraaji, L’Rain, and The Sun Ra Arkestra. A recent MFA graduate from Bard College and a former artist-in-residence at Pioneer Works and Flux Factory, they continue to explore sound as a medium for storytelling, identity, and transformation. Their work has been featured in Pitchfork, The Quietus, Nylon, Fact Magazine, and The Wire.
