Hailing from the South East of England, Yoshika has been writing and gigging solo since 2017. In early 2022, whilst living in a caravan in the Kent countryside, her home-made demos found their way to the Blue Flowers record label who began working with her. 2024’s debut E.P. ‘There’s A Time’ heralded the arrival of a captivating talent and vital new voice in the great canon of English singer-songwriters. The E.P. garnered support from BBC 6Music, BBC Introducing , CLASH, The Line Of Best Fit and The New Cue.
In late ’24 a collaborative E.P. with The Vernon Spring followed, an avant garde and deeply intuitive collection which challenged any initial perceptions of Yoshika as a traditional folk artist.

Yoshika’s songs are often deeply personal and concerned with attempting to understand the self & others, time, nature and mortality. A life-long Joni Mitchell fan she also takes inspiration from a wide mix of artists inc. Gillian Welch to Linda Perhacs, John Prine to Talk Talk.
