Yoko Pwno are on a mission to take Scottish music to the world.

Fronted by the twin fiddles of whisky-fuelled folk maestro Lewis Williamson, classically trained RCS graduate Lissa Robertson, banjo playing chef Gary Rafferty and physics teaching flautist Helen LeMar, Yoko Pwno deliver an unclassifiable and joyful mash-up of original folk tunes, showstopping vocals and irreverent electronic beats.

The band innovate, flex and mutate traditional Scottish folk roots in a way few are able - at the back of the stage, drummer Ali Hutchison and producer Calum Cummins are equally at home and referencing dance crossover acts like Disclosure and Red Snapper as they are producers like Bonobo, Matthew Herbert and Mr Scruff. Live on stage they deliver louder than life energy and more than a dash of tongue-in-cheek humour.

After releasing their second album 'Part Machine' via Skye Records in 2022, Yoko Pwno spent the summer on the road all over the UK. They are currently fine-tuning their live show ahead of a much anticipated 10th Anniversary gig at Edinburgh’s ‘Liquid Rooms’ on April 14th 2023.
