Jazmin Bean

With debut album "Traumatic Livelihood" live in Hamburg, Berlin, Munich and Cologne

Presented by Rausgegangen Munich

Introducing JazminBean through music alone would not only fall short of the mark - it would also only be half the fun. Because Jazmin Bean is much more than just a singer and musician. Bean herself talks about herself as a "genderless monster", defines herself as a non-binary person and thus immediately stirs up the people who write about Jazmin Bean's latest tour. As the English pronouns "they / them" don't translate so well into German, we'll always be talking about Jazmin Bean or Bean here. But the wild mixture of pop-punk, emo vibes, horrorcore and the so-called "Yami Kawaii" style also make Jazmin Bean a modern shining light - on stage and on the internet. Almost a million people follow her on TikTok alone. In Bean's videos, which combine influences from "Chucky - The Murder Doll" to "Hello Kitty", furry monsters can be seen bopping, samurai swords clashing and fountains of fake blood spraying.

Jazmin Bean was born in London in 2003 to a rock guitarist and a punk drummer, both of whom have parents from the Philippines. In recent years, first came internet fame and then a career in music. Since the age of 15, Jazmin Bean has been making music and if the founding myth is to be believed, Bean rubbed a real chicken liver over her body while singing at that first gig. In 2019, Bean released the first singles. While "War Zone Urchin" still mixed screamo parts with hyperpop elements, the follow-up "Pesticides" showed that Bean can also do pure pop. The first full-length EP "Worldwide Torture" with a whopping eleven tracks was released in November 2020 and contained Bean's biggest hit to date: "Hello Kitty " - an abysmal declaration of love to the world-famous Japanese cat character. Jazmin Bean once told the British NME about the sound and look that makes Bean so unique: "Ever since I was young, I've wanted this. So what could I do? Turn myself into THIS HERE!"

This year, Jazmin Bean's debut album "Traumatic Livelihood" was finally released and fulfilled all the expectations that had built up over the long wait. It contains fourteen songs, including well-known shockers such as "Piggy" and the moving, almost shoegazy-melodic "Terrified". But songs like " Black Dress", "Shit Show" or the fantastic title track also show Bean as a vulnerable, combative lyricist and strong singer. The long wait also had to do with Bean ditching an early album draft in 2022, which sounded like a "cry for help", and first going to rehab to shake off a drug addiction resulting from teenage trauma. Bean told DIY magazine, "I just wanted my album to feel a little optimistic and not just drown in my pain. Yes, I talk about sad things, but I wanted to make it clear that I accept them. I feel like a lot of sad music carries the somewhat toxic message of 'I'm sad and it's not going to get better, I don't want it to get better'. That's exactly what I didn't want." Jazmin Bean has succeeded.
