Yves Tumor has denied allegations of abuse against him.
Reports of sexual assault began to emerge against the musician – real name Sean Lee Bowie – last week, after images of a bruised woman were posted to the Yves Tumor subreddit.
The photos came alongside the text, which alleged that Bowie had “sexually assaulted someone close to me last week”.
The anonymous poster went on to say: “She has told me he forcefully groped her multiple times, bit her neck, held her down and stepped on her head with his shoe, amongst other things.
The post prompted further allegations against the musician, with artist Angel Money taking to X to allege that he had “groped” her on camera.
girl yes he need to cut it out . when he groped me ON CAMERA at the sisters album release.. we need to stop letting these boys touch on people!! and mind you I fw his art beyond but yeah.

Another artist, Kidä, who sang on the Yves Tumor song ‘Lovely Sewer’ from his last album ‘Praise a Lord Who Chews but Which Does Not Consume‘ and toured as part of his band, also took to X to share her experiences working with him, which she described as: “one of the most disrespectful professional experiences of my career.”.
Kidä also went on to say that she wasn’t credited for her feature on ‘Lovely Sewer’: ” A feature that could have meaningfully changed the course of my career.”.
With the recent allegations against Yves Tumor, I want to share my own experience.
I’ve known Shanti for years and sang on “Lovely Sewer” on his last record. What followed was one of the most disrespectful professional experiences of my career.

His fifth studio album, ‘Praise A Lord Who Chews But Which Does Not Consume; (Or Simply, Hot Between Worlds)’, was shared in 2023. In a four-star review, NME wrote: “‘Praise…’ is evidence of how brilliant rock can be when ambition and talent are met with a creative who isn’t afraid to be strange.
