Yeasayer

From Brooklyn, New York
Yeasayer
Australian Tour announced
October 2008



Yeasayer sound gloriously off-the-dial. The Age

Yeasayer announce they are taking a cosmic trip. The band will soon commence a spiritual journey from a mythical land (Brooklyn, New York) to our far off country.


This magical voyage has been much anticipated. With the indie blogosphere firmly in their corner, the eclectic four piece have made quite the name for themselves in a parallel dimension; the internet. Vest wearing brethren Chris Keating, Anand Wilderwere, Ira Wolf Tuton and Luke Fasano make up team Yeasayer each one a multi-instrumentalist and vocalist. Together they harmonize and take us on a phantasmagoric journey through time and space. They produce a strange and alluring sound' Middle Eastern-psych-snap-gospel- an apocalyptic vision drawn out of odd pop, 70s soft rock, African rhythms and psychedelic soul.

The Yeasayer debut long player All Hour Cymbals released late last year catapulted the foursome around the globe, into the minds of many a critic and music fan. They completed a mammoth US tour with friends MGMT and Man Man, and recently provided support to Beck on his European tour.

Yeasayer venture to Australia to deliver their famously trippy live show at The Great Escape Festival this October. with headline shows in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane. Please see below for show details.
