Musical career
Krewella, formed in 2007, consists of songwriting/vocalist sisters Jahan and Yasmine Yousaf accompanied by producer Kris “Rain Man” Trindl. Their music is a blend of self-produced electro-house and dubstep, sometimes with influences of drum and bass and progressive house. In June 2012, Krewella released their EP Play Hard. The album rose to #1 on Billboard’s Dance Radio Airplay chart and the single placed on the Pop Radio Airplay charts.
Krewella has headlined at EDM festivals around the globe including Ultra Music Festival, Electric Daisy Carnival, Stereosonic and Spring Awakening. These live performances earned the 2012 International Dance Music Award for “Best Breakthrough Artist.” After a widely publicized live vocal set at this year’s Ultra Music Festival, Billboard declared that “Krewella will be huge this year.”
The group is in the studio now and plans to release their first full-length album Get Wet on Columbia Records on September 24, 2013.
