Y.O.G.A. (Reuben Styles) & Jimi The Kween – Interstellar Out Now

BUY/STREAM: Y.O.G.A. & JIMI THE KWEEN – INTERSTELLAR

Performing to raucous crowds across Australia and New Zealand with their joyful, wild and outlandish combination of glitter, glam, and cowboy chic, Jimi The Kween and Y.O.G.A. have an electrifying chemistry on and off the stage. Their first collaboration is nothing less – a cosmic collision forged in rhinestones and pleather, the charismatic duo take us aboard their musical mothership ‘Interstellar’ – the summer banger that will make you go RA-TA-TA!

The monumental new single is as instant as they come, with a production that exudes joy from the outset, and coupled with Jimi’s bright and blissful vocals delivered with a mastery beyond his years. The upbeat nature of the song is underscored by an important lyrical message about the freedom to be one’s true self. And furthermore, by being united together anything in this cosmic universe is possible. Jimi shares, ““Like the stars we glow” really sums up the intent of the song for me, it is all about celebrating togetherness and lifting each other up. It’s because of the people that have loved and nurtured me every step of the way, that I am able to proudly present myself to the world. Through every challenge and triumph I take their energy with me. Together we can be interstellar!!!”

Using the single as a catalyst to raise awareness, Reuben of Y.O.G.A. shares, “releasing on World Mental Health Day is extremely important to myself and Jimi. Whilst we want the release to resemble all things bright and sparkly (I mean, we are after all the cowboy and the gaylien on an INTERSTELLAR mission through space…), we also wanted to make the release an important reminder that we should always take the time to look after our mental health. More Australians are dying than ever before and it’s partly because people don’t realise how important or how easy it is to talk and seek help. Therapy is becoming more accessible through mental health plans and medicare and we should all be at least thinking about finding ways to improve our mind health. We wanted to create a fundraiser for Support Act, who have created lots of fantastic new support networks in the mental health space such as a 24/7 hotline and free counselling for anyone in the music industry. Our fundraiser party is hoping to raise $40,000 through tickets and selling tees. So let’s all have a cosmic time with the cowboy and the gaylien and at the same time keep our health in check.“

Launched in 2021, Y.O.G.A (You’re Only Great Always) is the new solo side project of Reuben Styles – one half of the ARIA award winning duo Peking Duk. With a focus on music, art and the sharing of #MentalHealthStories, Y.O.G.A.’s mission is to create a space where people can come together to talk about mental health and support one another, in the hope that it makes it easier for other people to do so when they’re in a time of crisis.

As part of the ethos of working through the bad and celebrating the good, Reuben’s musical output leans heavily into Western, with the aesthetic to boot! Styles has released the ‘You’re Only Great Always’ EP, alongside various singles, collaborations, and a string of “cow☆tech” remixes including Morgan Wallen’s ‘Last Night’, all in the name of a bit of fun.

Possibly the world’s hottest drag artist, Jimi The Kween is pure and is limitless exuberant energy, lighting up festival main stages the world over including Snow Machine, Splendour In The Grass, World Pride, Pitch Music & Arts Festival and more. A quadruple threat drag artist, musician, singer, and DJ, Jimi is set for global domination with her larger than life persona and boundless talent. ‘Interstellar’ is the first taste of a new era of high octane records that are bound to get you shimmy shaking and absolutely letting go.

To celebrate the release of ‘Interstellar’, Y.O.G.A and Jimi The Kween are throwing a fundraiser for Support Act, to help raise much needed funds to provide crisis relief, mental health and wellbeing support to musicians, and music workers across the industry. 
Y.O.G.A. & Jimi The Kween’s new single ‘Insterstellar’ is out now on all streaming platforms.
