All three bring their distinctive musical experiences and talents to make up Y-Vern Beats.

Responsible for the funky chords, the infectious melodies and the thumping bass lines, Harry is the creative force driving Y-Vern Beats, marking his stamp on each song.

Harry goes onto explain his vision for Y-Vern Beats: “We want to see fusion of Punjabi Folk with a style that has never been seen before. Hard hitting funky grooves with electric chords that will see Bhangra music embrace a new style. It’s what I’ve always tried to put into my music, something that reflects my diverse musical upbringing”

Kully Manku has spent years under the strict and influential guidance of Ustaad Indi Singh Soor (Dhol Enforcement Agency) where he has thrived. Now at the age of 21; Kully excels in the performance of classical Punjabi instrumentation. More notably Kully is an experienced dhol, dholki, tumbi & dadh musician.
