Yeasayer Announce They’ve Broken Up

Brooklyn based rock band Yeasayer has announced that the band will be breaking up. Formed in 2006, the trio has announced the breakup of the band after 15 years and 5 studio albums.

Yeasayer has made their way as an experimental rock trio through harmonious vocals and stellar production techniques implemented by all 3 members of the band. While the band drew influence from various other progressive and experimental bands, lyrics, poems, and books have been a driving force for the way Yeasayer writes and produces their music. The band’s 2019 album, Erotic Returns, was praised for the combination of musical depth paired with simplistic listening; read more about the band’s latest album here.

Drew Feinerman: I have just completed my senior at the University of Michigan majoring in international studies with an emphasis in political economics and development, with a minor in Chinese language and culture, and I have recently been accepted into the Berklee School of Music's masters of music business program. Although my academic interests include economics, political science, and history, I consider music to be my one true passion. Music is, and has always been, a driving force for the way I think and act every day of my life. I have been playing the tenor saxophone since the age of ten, and playing an instrument at a high level has allowed me to only further my understanding and appreciation for music. While I grew up listening to predominantly classic rock, I soon found myself gravitating toward jazz, hip-hop, funk, and other genres, as my learned to both play and analyze music as a listener. As a writer, I am able to apply my skills both as a musician and a listener, and look forward to the opportunity to being able to express my thoughts on various stories in the music industry.
