Looking backwards and looking forwards...


Hey there beautiful guys and gals,

Been a while since we last posted, so I thought I'd give a shout and say hey.

Alright, that's enough chit chat, time for business: what's been up with us? Well, we've been keeping busy, in one form or another.  We had a fairly fucking killer show at Mercury Lounge about a month ago--very very fun.  Since then we've been practicing a shitload, and writing new material.  The songs we're writing right now are excellent.  Can't wait to perform them for you guys. Hopefully get them recorded soon.

As for upcoming shows, it's looking like we're gonna play Mercury Lounge again in early April. Details have yet to be solidified, so don't quote us on that. We're definitely looking forward to seeing all you fine folks in splendid form, and premiering some new shit for you.

We recently got quite a nice review on a blog called The Culture of Me.  You can check it out here: http://www.thecultureofme.com/culture/2009/03/emerging-the-yes-way.html

As for my personal self, the Nick in the band, I'm hungry and listening to music.  I'm also bored and I just made a mix tape for no one in particular. Here's what's on it:

Frightened Rabbit - The Twist
Howlies - Smoke
Glasvegas - Go Square Go
Xiu Xiu - No Friend Oh!
A.C. Newman - Take On Me (his cover of the classic A-ha song)
Los Campesinos! - Death To Los Campesinos!
Los Campesinos! - Miserabilia
The Pains of Being Pure at Heart - Everything With You
Metric - Help I'm Alive
Antony & The Johnsons - Another World
Adele - Hometown Glory (Live)
DeVotchKa - How It Ends
Heartless Bastards - The Mountain

If you don't know these bands/artists I highly recommend checking them out.

Let's be in touch,

The Yes Way
