Press quotes:
“A marvelously mellow kind of psych-pop, clean and sparkly like a diamond baguette, dappled with Bollywood-toned lilts.” - Noisey
“Humeysha melts modal guitars and puja bells with a reverbed vocal that scans as post-Panda Bear, but with less Brian Wilson and more fodder for mantra." - Revolt
“Humeysha exists at a unique intersection, merging the cinematic formality of Bollywood and geometric repetition of Islamic art with dreamy guitar riffs over trance beats.” - Fanzine
