"All the way from Berlin, via Liverpool and Australia, twenty-something singer-songwriter Yusuf Sahilli takes a leaf or three out of John Lennon’s playbook, infused with a touch of “Graceland” and plenty of grace. Fully buzzed on global sounds – and the coffee grounds fortune that persuaded his father to finally buy him his first electric guitar – Yusuf and his band now string us along with their bouncy folk pop, spiced with Middle Eastern rhythms and melodies to honor his Turkish/Arabic roots. Check out Yusuf’s other timeless tunes, brimming with boundless feel-good passion and compassion for the whole wide world." Mercedes Benz Mixed-Tape
"Schöne Popstücke mit leicht orientalischen Sound. Trotzdem, nicht nur wegen des Gesangs, eben Pop." Nikel Pallat (Indigo/Ton Steine Scherben)
