Details:
On Oct. 25th Yuzima will release his fiery version of U2's 1991 single "Mysterious Ways". Released as the second single to promote his latest EP Glasnost, ALL proceeds from this release will go to Occupy Wall Street and the song will be available for download on Itunes.

Like many people captivated by the Wall Street protests, Yuzima has followed the protests, participated in demonstrations and embraces the frustration and anger much of the worldâs societies feel today.

âMasses of people today are demanding economic openness and an more equitable society. This feeling is deeply routed in the thoughts and ideas that inspired my EP Glasnost. I grew up in a New York housing project in the Bronx and I fully understand the social dynamic economic injustice creates for society.â

The historic rise and fall of the Berlin Wall, the election of the first African American president of the USA, the toppling of a government in Egypt helped by the use of social media and now the Occupy Wall Street protest, all come together under one banner. Yuzima recorded his version of U2âs âMysterious Waysâ to promote the EP, help emphasize and parallel these inspirations and give context under this banner - a banner of social justice.

An early preview to listeners on Soundcloud received a terrific response. A review by popular music blog Cover Me said "â¦(Yuzima) channeled his inner U2 while recording" and âthe meshed music he makes gives the cover a fuller indie vibe". Additional blogs, Lost at E Minor and Hype Machine, featured the cover with strong support of dozens of U2 fan accounts on twitter.

Yuzima is a prolific indie singer-songwriter, who released his debut LP Its Wonderful in 2010. Yuzima, the album and various music videos have been featured on prominent blogs, college radio and websites including, The Hype Machine, The Fame Game, 88.1 KVSU and have gotten props from the likes of Julian Casablancas, Lady Miss Kier, Carson Kressley, Tatiana Plattâs Fame Game and many others.
