Cigarette Picnic is a stripped down, sultry femme power trio focusing on rich harmonies and minimal instrumentation. They are based in Duluth, Minnesota and perform original music with bold flavor and smooth soul. The trio includes collaborative lyricism and composition from Ricky Francois (vocals), Madi Phyle (vocals) and Elsa Krantz (vocals, electric guitar).

Yazmin is an accomplished musician and multi-faceted artist originally from Northern Wisconsin. Performing since age 8, she developed a passion for Cuban-influenced music in her teens, leading her to pursue dedicated study and immersion starting in 2016. Blending Afro-Cuban rhythms and Latin traditions with influences like Joni Mitchell and Stevie Wonder, she creates a unique, genre-bending sound. Yazmin performs with her trio Beat Zero, featuring Grammy-nominated Álvaro Benavides and Andrew Gillespie, and they often collaborate with a world-class string quartet. Together, they fuse Latin jazz, funk, and folk/rock with her heartfelt, bilingual songwriting. Their next studio album is set for release in early 2026.
