After I interviewed Yeasayer in November '07, they took off way beyond the low-level buzz the song "2080" was creating at that time. In the last few months, the guys have become key spokespeople for the Brooklyn scene on MTV... CONTINUE READING QUIT YOUR DAY JOB - SXSW EDITION: YEASAYER»

President's Day is becoming a big going away party for Yeasayer. Tomorrow, they're off to conquer Europe with their chants and yearns and hipster-hippie preaching, and already we paused to marvel at their powerful Conan performance. Now we get a...

Yeasayer made the long commute from Brooklyn to 30 Rock on Friday night, coming armed with background singers, new agey mysticism, and let's face it, lots of swagger. "2080"'s the tune they deemed fit for their live national television debut,... CONTINUE READING YEASAYER PERFORM CONAN'S "FAVORITE SONG IN A LONG TIME"»

We'll always remember Yeasayer as the ones who taught us about the post-Kokie's Brooklyn scene and for their jam-tastic, psych-choral live shows. Here the boys are, all the way on the left coast at the Echoplex in L.A., asking us... CONTINUE READING NEW YEASAYER LIVE VIDEO - "WAIT FOR THE SUMMER"»
