Formed in Brooklyn at the end of 2006, but now based in North Carolina, Yarn tend to lean towards the southern rock element of americana. The band started with a weekly Monday night residency at Kenny’s Castaways on Bleecker Street in New York’s Greenwich Village, a place that previously hosted up-and-coming local acts such as Patti Smith, the New York Dolls, and Bruce Springsteen.
Although it has changed at times during the band’s 20-year existence, Yarn’s line-up is, band founding member, songwriter, lead vocalist and guitarist Blake Christiana (also co-producer), a rhythm section of bass player Rick Bugel and Robert Bonhomme on drums and, completing the line-up is Andy Thomas on lead guitar and vocals.
