Yukhu on the seaside of the caspian english lyrics
Yukhu (Azerbaijani: Yuxu (Latin)/Јуху (Cyrillic), Russian: Юху, Turkish: Yuhu, [juˈxu]) were an Azerbaijani rock band based in Sumgayit, that were active from 1988 to 2001. They became one of the most popular Azerbaijani rock bands during the 1990s. The group released three studio albums.
Contents
Yukhu were the first rock band to sing in Azeri.
History
In 1989, the group won the "Gyzyl Payiz" musical festival. As a result, a French woman who was in the audience that night made the group an offer to record and release an album. They accepted, purchasing a ticket from Baku to Paris via Istanbul. Due to problems acquiring the necessary permits to live and work in France, the band were stranded in Istanbul, so they decided to stay there. Since their albums were released on Turkish labels, all text on them is in Turkish, although they are still sung in Azeri.
In 1990, the group filmed a video for their song "Xəzərin sahilində", directed by Vahid Nakhysh.
After Yukhu
Yukhu split due to Naghdaliyev and Eyvazov moving to Turkey. Eyvazov became a tattoo artist and Naghdaliyev continued to involve himself in music. Emin formed the group Sirr in 2004 and is the only Yuxu member still living in Azerbaijan. Nematov lives in Moscow.
