YAWN 2011

With tribal tunes built upon yelps, nature sounds, and clattering rhythms, Chicago’s psych quartet YAWN have garnered almost unanimous comparisons to Animal Collective and Yeasayer. Their debut LP Open Season, out later this summer, is certainly one to keep an ear out for, and you’ll have plenty of opportunities to see them play live with Mates Of State in the fall.

  1. no nyc date?? por queeee?

  2. They’re also playing August 30th at Schuba’s in Chicago. It’s their record release party. Saw them open for Tame Impala with Yuck, and thought they were better than Yuck.

  3. We will definitely be playing in NYC!! We just haven’t confirmed a venue yet.
    Thanks H-Man!!!

  4. Excellent name, excellent track. Touring with Other Lives? Best news yet.

  5. Any chance of a Louisville or Bloomington date?
