Yoo Doo Right
Inspired by the pounding rhythmic improvisations found in krautrock, experimental trio Yoo Doo Right (Montréal, CA) wed noisy, melodic guitar parts, effect-heavy synthesizer soundscapes, nonchalant bass grooves, and patented percussive furies into a literal wall of sound. Solemn, chin-to-chest vocals dance in and out of the primordial sonic spectrum, creating a warm pillow to rest a weary head upon. In their honest approach to experimentation, YDR engages with elements of shoegaze, post-rock, and psychedelia, crafting a unique sound that could be described as a “car crash in slow motion”.

Singer/Songwriter Xinchen Tang is an adventurous and creative spirit. She spent several years traveling the globe on her own, immersing herself in new cultures. Her writing is influenced by the experiences she had during her travels. In China, Kelsey received a degree from The Sichuan Conservatory in music, one of the few music universities in China. At this school, she joined a K-pop-style girl group as a rapper, singer, and dancer. Her music is noted for emotional vocals and lyrics, and reflects sensitivity and soulful fire, but Kelsey also enjoys writing and performing Rap. Music is the most important part of Xinchen’s life -as she always says, “I can live without a boyfriend, but I can’t live without music.”

That’s why I love music, music composes life's flavor.
