A Doodee Music Master Recording
"If it's a DOODEE, you know it's the SHIT®" - Stripeydave 2008
This post is all about freely sharing some great music, spreading the word about these bands, increasing sales of their goods and attendance at their shows and having a little fun. _____________________________________
Yarn is a mighty fine little band that has a sound rooted in the country blues and the south - not what you'd normally expect from a group that calls New York City home. I hear everything from Gram Parsons to Wilco to Outlaw Country to Exile On Main Street. Hate to classify things but it looks like Americana is the best place for this post. Any way you cut it, this band cranks out some mighty nice music.
Yarn gave us a buncha music - both sets combined clock in at 3 hours. I do believe "Sweet Hickory" was pretty much written on the spot so it's a world premiere for that one. This one ended up with pretty nice sound and a nice Blake left - Rod right seperation. This was a feat for a recording made in a room whose priorities are lotsa drinkin' first and live music second.
This one is highly recommended folks. Y'all enjoy.

Thanks to Yarn for allowing me to record and share this for free with y'all. In exchange I expect y'all to support the band by attending their shows and buying their recordings and merchandise.
While it's not the same without Andrew or Trevor. The band does a good job to make up for there absence.I am digging the new song Sweet Hickory. It's slow and has some nice Vocal's from Blake and a great Guitar solo from Rod. It's a first time debut so I am sure by the time it makes it onto an album it will sound a bit different.
