Yarn - This Is the Year (2016)

Yarn's new album, the boldly optimistic This Is the Year, will be released May 27th. A seamless blend of vibrant, inspired, back porch melodies and narrative, descriptive lyrics that detail the challenges faced when one's life is jolted off it's bearings, the record documents in detail the band's determination to move forward while balancing precariously on a line that forms a border between love and hate. It's an album about re-evaluating relationships, making tough choices and sometimes skirting the rules, a tack that was inspired by musicians they admire - Waylon and Willie, Merle Haggard and other Texas troubadours with a distinctly renegade reputation.
