Yakul - Take Flight (Official Video)

Following Yakul’s 2021 debut album, Rise Indigo, the band ready themselves to embark on an explorative new venture led by the mesmerising single ‘Take Flight’. Forging uncharted territory for the four-piece, they call upon saturated vocals and unpolished percussion accentuated with a warm dose of Yakul’s signature synthesis.

Frontman, James Berkeley, says, “This is the first Yakul track I’ve fully produced. From the beginning I’ve had such a clear idea of how I wanted it to sound. It was a great experience experimenting with it in the studio, running multiple tracks through our reel to reel tape machine and matching the energy of the song itself to the production.” Lyrically, ‘Take Flight’ muses over escapism and the duality of having distinct but separate sides to oneself. With stunning, dreamlike visuals on the way, this is an exciting step into the Brighton future-soul outfit’s future. With singles to follow in early 2023 it’s looking like a transformative year for Yakul.
