Susan -

Anyone who has every listened to one of my writing playlists knows that you don't have to listen too long before a Yonaka tracks pops up. They are also one of my fave bands to see live, and Theresa Jarvis is one of my all time fave female vocalists.

Yonaka, who also features George Edwards on guitar, Alex Crosby on bass and keyboard, and Robert Mason on drums released Seize the Power, the follow up to their smash album, Don't Wait Til Tomorrow, last Thursday the 15th and it did not disappoint. Its that badass sound we have come to love coupled with this indescribable feeling that you can do just about anything, anthems for the repressed, the depressed and those who need to seize the power within.

Speaking of the new project, vocalist Theresa said: 
Seize The Power’ is a collection of songs to empower you. We all possess the power within but through life we are always put down by others, told to be quiet and not express ourselves; this makes us less confident and we lose ourselves.

Yonaka has some of the most incredible visual music videos, that screams creativity and each music video for Seize the Power seems to tell a story. 

Seize the Power is a perfect blend of motivational anthems with Ordinary, Raise Your Glass and Raise your Glass, to massive FU tracks, like Get Out, Clique, Greedy and Call me a Saint, that will be epic live and the last track, Anthem, surprises the hell out of you in the best possible way.

I was cold, I was lonely
No one thought to even phone me
Look at me now, I'm a fighter
I'm a strong bitch, baby, I'm designer

Standout tracks for me:

Nuff said.​
