Entry Information
Blending her Pan-Arab roots with pop, poetic lyrics, electronic music, soul and guitar-driven melodies, Yasmine Hamdan has developed a distinctive musical language of her own. Her first major breakthrough came with Soapkills, the pioneering Beirut indie-electro duo she formed with Zeid Hamdan in the late 1990s.
After moving to Paris in 2005, she collaborated with Madonna’s producer Mirwais on the Y.A.S. project, releasing Arabology in 2009 — an album as elegant as it is attuned to the dancefloor. Since then, she has continued to work internationally as a songwriter, singer and producer. Her collaborations have also extended into cinema, including work with directors such as Elia Suleiman and Jim Jarmusch.
Her third studio album, I Remember I Forget (بنسى وبتذكر), released in autumn 2025, places her connection to Lebanon and the experiences of the country at its centre. Yasmine Hamdan performs at Frankhan Selectist on October 10 as part of the 36th Akbank Jazz Festival.
