about
The Yes Way, according to The Deli Magazine, "offer us pleasant-but-eerie melodic rock with punk attitude, where peppy-pop melodies are hybridized with indie elements. Distortion ebbs and flows (sans shoegazing) with sauntering beats, playful guitar strums and uplifting vocal harmonies abound."
The Yes Way recently released "Live Sessions" before embarking on a 23 show tour anchored by 5 SXSW performances. Recorded at James Iha's (Smashing Pumpkins) Stratosphere Studios in under 10 hours, "Live Sessions" only overdubs are vocal harmonies.
This summer The Yes Way are confirmed to play The Northside Festival, Make Music New York, The Deli Magazine's "Best of NYC" Festival, The Sweet Tea Honey Pie Festival (DC) and Hempfest 3D (Wrightsville, PA).
Furthermore, The Yes Way were named a "Top 4 Straight Shooter" act out of NYC at SXSW 2011 by The Deli Magazine and drew 250+ at Skully's in Columbus, OH on 03/26 (final tour date).
In addition to SXSW, The Yes Way were an official CMJ 2010 selection (playing 4 showcases), played The Foburg Festival (with Ra Ra Riot, Das Racist and Givers) The Kahbang Music Festival (with OK GO, Free Energy and B.O.B), The Midpoint Music Festival (with Best Coast, Surfer Blood and Ted Leo) and were voted the Deli Magazine's Artist of the Month for September 2010.

Recent Press:
Metromix New York says: "Capable of exhilarating moments, this indie Brooklyn rock band creates not a wall of sound but a tower—a musical minaret of sorts... in total The Yes Way is polished, energetic and appropriately noisy."
The Deli Magazine says: "The Yes Way infuse their sound with versatility and mood. By incorporating different sonic elements – guitar riffs blended with smooth harmonies, heavy instrumentation carried by emotional vocals – this band has an admirable track list to offer. The track that stands out for its uniqueness, is the Radiohead circa OK Computer/In Rainbows, “Where Was I,” which well represents that versatility this band is going for."
CMJ says: "solid drum kick outs and elastic guitar swarms with kinetic flare"
Midpoint Music Festival says: "spacious, artfully-crafted indie rock heavy on off-kilter melodies and light on trend-chasing."
The Culture Of Me says: "In this over-mediated, completely saturated terrain we all consider our lives, it's shockingly hard-pressed to find an act that's absent of even a marginal amount of weaselly self-importance. Putting all that is righteous and admirable about the craft of songwriting into their indie rock blender, The Yes Way create a medium-fi (trademark), moody, not-quite-pop mixture of expansive guitars, snapping drums and shape-shifting vocal harmonies."
We All Make Music Magazine says: "The Yes Way’s music displays promise – their songs “Mets and “Where Was I” are tightly threaded with ’90s influences like Pablo Honey-era Radiohead and Gentlemen-era Afghan Whigs."
The Downtown Diaries says: "This is music that takes you on a journey, music to get lost in, a soundtrack that belongs in moments of introspection and moments where life evolves. The Yes Way is a progressive tour de force with a lush, sonic landscape so powerful- that this just might be the next band worthy of a movement."
