Bio

Yarn's organic blend of acoustic country music has the warmth of old vinyl, the soul of Gram Parsons and the lyricism and profound musicianship that only comes from each member’s dedicated musical journeys. This newly formed Brooklyn based band has used their songwriting, guitars, mandolins, and shining vocal harmonies to capture a passionate following throughout the East Coast. "The band's textured, bluegrass-tinged country is at once accessible and affecting. Front man Blake Christiana's singing voice is the aural equivalent of a broken-in pair of jeans—rugged, homey, and dependable. Among this bevy of top-notch bluegrass musicians, mandolinist Andrew Hendryx's thoughtful, articulate playing emerges as a crucial part of the band's sound. Though Yarn's jam band roots are manifest at times, the instrumentation never preens or overpowers; Christiana's masterful songwriting shines through in each song."
