Yunioshi 2007: What we got up to!
In our first year we've managed to get two tracks from our first EP1 picked up for ad syncs (Kia and Vauxhall cars), released our first single, played Nottingham Arena as well as numerous oter fantastic venues around the country, and even picked up our fourth member Hakushi Yunioshi San - our brand spanking new live drummer.Thanks for all your support this year. Thanks to all who came along to see us and thanks for all of the kind words. We really love playing and making cakes for you!
Yunioshi 2008: Lets Go!
So to 2008 - Our first gig of 2008 will see us headlining the famous Dublin Castle in Camden! Londonites come along and bring your friends, leap about and eat our cakes!
In April we're off to Reykjavik to play at the fantastic ORGAN with Bloodgroup and Spaceships are Cool.
We have some other great gigs in the pipeline - both confirmed and unconfirmed - One of which would see us supporting one of my favourite bands. We want to get around a bit this year! Expect more UK dates and a bigger louder live sound! We rock hard!
// Latest Gig News //
The three of YUNIOSHI are back down south after their brief night hanging out with the cool cats of Hoxton.
This night, however, we find YUNIOSHI in their spiritual home. The seedy back alleyways of Soho are where this mob belong and this night will see them bringing the filthiest funk and dirtiest drums the the dancefloor - and they are ready to spank yo asses with it!
Expect rock, robots and some kind of cake based items (probably to go sploshing with). We're on second but it won't be sloppy seconds for you lot. So pop along early (doors at 7.30pm - and it gets busy quickly). Expect to see our finest porn faces onstage at 8.30pm.

We'll see you there - dress kinky!

Sounds Like
"A brightly, highly, super cool funk breakbeat three piece from Nottingham, with a sound that is so spot on it would appear this is more american sounding than a british thing, but all in all a fresh approach! If you imagine Lemonjelly, Massive Attack and Del La Soul forming a supergroup, this would be the outcome!"
Fierce Panda
Yunioshi has a sound like Beck, Simple Kid, Tom Vek, Fonda 500 and the Super Furry Animals all regressed back to small children and hanging out at the zoo laughing at monkeys throwing their own poo at the people watching.
An eclectic mix of found breakbeat samples from the back of dusty cupboards cut out by scissors with round blades and glued together by hooky guitars, old childrens keyboards and whatever odd instruments ebay has on offer that week.
We have Tshirts! Wear the Yuniform. Get your paws on the first ever Yunioshi tshirts. Available from our ebay shop or at gigs. Made by idressmyself.co.uk and designed by both Yunioshi and our fine myspace friends.
Colours: Choose from - Chocolate, Sky or Cherry all with magenta print
Yunioshi are made of three people based in Nottingham. An eclectic bunch of influences feed a sound which is always upbeat, always trying to steal a peek up the short skirt of life.

There isn't a moment I breathe when I wouldn't like to see you in hotpants. Preferably whilst you are soaking wet and doing housework but boglin' would also be fine.
Am currently genre hopping and dabbling in the world of hipidy hop for a top secret end of term master jam for da kidz.
I've put a new track on my site tho' called RedHill Gang Rap. And when I tell you that this is the track that got rejected,you know that the track I'm gonna bust just has to be someting pretty fucking special - and you would be right, squire.
