Covet on Audiotree Live (Full Session)

Covet is the adventure rock trio that accompanies complex, mathematical guitar tunes penned by instrumental phenom Yvette Young. Young began playing and performing early in life, learning piano at age four and picking up violin by age seven. She fused the techniques of both instruments into a specialized form of guitar mastery. It’s a fast paced, intricate, two-handed playing style that mimics the momentum of classical music. Apart from music, Young is heavily invested in pen drawing and painting, and finds inspiration in the interconnectedness of the natural world. Young loves the ocean and uses the tide’s push and pull as a muse for her spectacular guitar composition. Check out Covet on Audiotree Live.

yvette young is the coolest person on earth

[@__Henry__]

For what reason or reasons?

[@TheHAAXX]

Fantastic guitarist, super nice person.

[@JS-ri8qc]

Dr. Peridot ugh fantastic is an understatement hahaha

[@thomasrehbein5939]

They are all very talented and wonderful humans.

[@teacherfromthejungles6671]

Jesse Shayne , her solo project is so nice indeed

[@MTThought]

hey drummer person guy, I hear that double bass and you're a madman for sticking double bass into compositions as gentle as these. You're a madman and it sounds so damn good.

[@johnv4866]

Fabulous polyrhythmic drummer

[@jamisonandrewmanhorvaththe1124]

double bass doesn’t belong much in Covet’s music, though.

[@johnlarose5399]

KEITH GRIMSHAW HES IN A METAL BAND

[@johnlarose5399]

ONTOGENY IS HIS BAND

[@CONDRADZ]

Covet needs a part 2 on Audiotree!

[@paulineseraphina]

they’ve got a couple of new Audiotree uploads from their new album!

[@anthonymichael5846]

So technical yet so relaxing. It's making me too laid back to want to figure out time signatures.

[@gleventhal]

I am at around 3:30 right now and pretty sure it's 4/4 here at least.

[@josejalaeno73]

gleventhal I’m around 8 minutes in and can confirm the first two songs are indeed in 4/4. No crazy time signatures (yet) but the playing and, well, everything else is indeed crazy in the best way possible. Loving this band so far!

[@lidstrom-yd5pb]

Players like Yvette and Ichika Nito are opening up amazing new horizons for finger-style and finger-tapping technique...

[@oscarbrittingham-detxemend396]

as a musician that is still a considerable outsider to this math rock stuff, it’s like they’re playing the guitars like chapman sticks. really interesting stuff

[@benjip2931]

lil late to the party but if you want to see some really cool tapping check out Stanley Jordan. guys been doin it since the 80’s

[@johnv4866]

I just watched a pretty lengthy interview with Yvette on the Anderton's KZbin channel. What a fascinating person and a great interview she is. So open, friendly, and genuine. She's clearly a genius.

[@PatronSaintSpyridon]

I just want to give the Host a hug. I hope she's okay.

[@MellowJelly]

lmaooo don't be so patronizing she probably just has social anxiety

[@cardbored_]

Yeah she seemed... interesting

[@abk868s]

It may be one of her first assignments. She'll get better.

[@Ikhtiman]

I felt that

[@Sovereign_Citizen_LEO]

She's pretty cute, but yeah honestly one of the better Audiotree hosts.

[@oldgergg]

Just saw these dudes with Polyphia and Jason Richardson at the first show of the LIT AF tour! It was so good.

[@Astral_Wave]

i like covet and chon. call that clean shred. not that dirty shred your dad listened to

[@account9866]

adam bell and clean tap lol

[@betweenthewars4054]

My man acting like he never heard of Pat Metheny.

[@fadedsun303]

Some songs I kept expecting Yvette to break out into some heavy distortion haha

[@liamlatour689]

hell ye

[@iceWaterProductions1]

Dirty shred your dad listened to… hahaha I’m your old weird uncle that’s gone to and still goes to all the killer guitars concerts and BUYS their physical products that put food in their mouths and pays their electricity bills. And that dirty shred inspired it all.

[@nicky2908]

Good quality music. So cohesive between the three. Sounds innocent, light hearted yet playful and with charisma : ) I feel you girl

[@Woolookologie]

amazing band, so many great musicans on Audiotree lately

[@jazzywillo10]

Love the harmonic handsplosion at the end of Hydra 18:22

[@davidphilipp16]

Hydra is so fucking good

[@ISMSKL]

I think the lighting is spot on on this one. nice work

[@megajlaing]

I was astonished at how these these sounds came together. I don't what to say but it made me excited. I was laughing with joy at some of that fingertapping technique! Such an abstract thing to watch

[@justice_was_taken]

Pretty dope

[@Sovereign_Citizen_LEO]

@Years of Apathy - Your YT Channel name is the exemplification of me :) Brilliant (but I wish it wasn't true lol).

[@nikosnenes7138]

Yvette = amazing, bassist = beast , drummer = tight AF

[@jondoe1916]

I just found this band because they’re coming to city with DGD and HTS. I didn’t know the guitarist was a woman. She’s amazing. This band is amazing. Cannot wait to see y’all live.

[@gotripout]

jesus, im so blown away right now... I've been playing piano and guitar since i was 9 and this is just something else... its like a band that doesn't care about money, they just nerd out on talent... love it!

[@jackbaxon]

These guys gel so well together. Such an amazing performance. So much love for this music!

[@malditobast]

I wish Yvette was my friend

[@alwan1414]

The Gamer Room nah man, I'll fall in love with her. And, you know the rest..

[@nikeshgurung]

Haha

[@WeirdofMouth]

@@alwan1414 BRO YOU JUST POSTED CRINGE!

[@gothboi4ever]

We all wish this. Sadly it won’t happen to 99% of us. But we can appreciate how cool she is from the comment section.

[@alfiandifahmi3534]

@@gothboi4ever sorry guys but I am that 1%.

[@wrharrington3]

Awesome guys. Very TTNG vibey and that is 100% a compliment.

[@Chris14421]

Imagine Yvette having a guitar battle with Dylan from Tiny Moving Parts omg make it happen!!

[@nebularvoid4669]

Chris14421 she doesn’t like competition

[@pablorobles3817]

A collab would be super interesting, though!

[@peachfreude]

Hydra sounds so good live

[@mannurse06]

Thank you Audiotree and Covet, what a wonderful world all of a sudden

[@jazzfusionfan260]

Wow... just wow. Yvette is amazing, very gifted indeed.

[@whatdothlife4660]

This was my introduction to Covet and the first viewing I wasn't really into it but it was David's bass playing that brought me back over and over until I became a fan.

[@XhopebringerX777]

2019 and so glad they’re getting their recognition! As a guitarist Yvette is one of my crushes:3 and she’s so cool!

[@pablorobles3817]

*As a human being

[@richeeskullz]

One of the greatest bands on the most radical planet in the galaxy.

[@johnlarose7268]

[@russhaven1575]

Wonderful, unique band. Interviewer-host is really agile, great follow- questions and observations.

[@RichieAnthonyGuitar]

Unbelievable, so stoked I saw them

[@dannycastromusic_]

Love how that drumset sounds

[@GrinningDemon]

Haha I was at the show they played right after this set, who knew! These guys are awesome

[@hulldrummer4403]

Kmac should cover one of these songs.

[@MrAxman53]

"Yeah, originally I just like wrote these songs by myself when I just picked up a guitar..." Amazing, really.

[@BenDy3223]

Yo drummer, I know you're looking at this, what the hell is your other band's name, I want to hear it!

[@TheMrIcs]

this band is awesome, I just found them on instagram and they just made me discover a new genre that could easily fall in my favourites. I have also fallen in love with the host, but that's a different story.

[@corv2731]

20:00 holy shit, the polyrhythms are so tasty. God damn. Yvette is unbelievably gifted in a way I cannot understand, but don't forget about Keith, that dude is a fucking monster. Great feel.

[@cubillo77]

Best Audiotree live session, ever!!!

I'm getting an instrumental Minus The Bear feel and THAT'S ALL RIGHT!! So amazing!

Bad Ass! This performance is very impressive!

[@loristrode9556]

never thought id like live in studio sessions. until audiotree i bought so many of sessions on bandcamp.

[@joaobatuca_]

Yvette's playing might be amazing, but being able to keep up with it is just as incredible. Solid rhythm section. Beasts

[@kyotoguitar6463]

Some line on Hydra resembles Waves by The Aristocrats..... that's just crazy ! Already in love with this band XD

[@timsoutheastemo]

this was published on my birthday 3 years ago, best bday present ever.

And he comes from a Heavy Metal background (but jack of all trades really).

hail Hydra

ughhh yvette is so good!!!

[@alananddriving]

who let the bass player leave the house in that hat? *jokes*

"Alright listen guys, we gonna play some music and then we'll go fishing after that."

[@blueberry1234-B]

maybe he a farmer?

[@theunnamed89]

Saw them last night on New Orleans. They were amazing.

[@1am228]

Its not what makes you feel something It's that feeling itself

[@al-de1en]

this got me speechless dude

[@DavidBankston]

this is so dope

[@aethrya]

this music reminds me that life is still good

[@aldenmedrano4204]

Nice music it's somehow feels like taking mo to a paradise. An awesome trio band unique music. Rock on COVET.

[@jfs4111]

This is truly some amazing stuff. I'll see them in Seattle.

[@jarrettswartz3533]

Absolutely sick! Blown the f away. Great sound.

[@blazerboy233]

Just remember guys... this is the same man on drums as in the falkor music video.

[@noyd4172]

That's incorrect. Keith left Covet before the Effloresce album, so the drummer you are hearing and seeing on Falkor is actually Forrest Rice.

[@IgnorantCommentator]

@@noyd4172 Did Keith leave to play in his other band? Always wondered why the switch up...not that I'm ungrateful for Forrest. He's great.

[@gefnuppland4810]

okay i see one guitar player....sounds like three though

[@cameronbrosius6941]

@blob darkass they have a backing track going too

[@Dhal-SimMusic]

Amazing. I could hear "Everybody Wants to Rule the World" around the 17 minute mark. Xx

[@justice_was_taken]

I hear that too lol. All of Hydra is a banger though

[@PhiloNoth]

This. Is. So. Beautiful

[@richardshahi]

Holy hell, this is so good.

[@mattdasilva]

You guys rawk! Both the band and Audiotree!

[@mjs3764]

The drummer and bassist must feel like they have the best gigs around. They are so lucky to play with such a gifted, unique artist like Yvette. They must constantly be forcing themselves to think outside the box. I'll bet they're really happy playing together, too. That counts for a lot. Also, I think the concept of water is a great one for their songs. As Bruce Lee used to say, water can crash or it can flow. This music makes me feel like it does both as well. Be like water my friends.

[@IndyAdvant]

Beauty

[@julianschulz1620]

It would be funny if they launched into a 12 bar blues, three songs in.

[@Sovereign_Citizen_LEO]

They should end with that, like a jamming blues outro song lol.

[@stevensherlock1101]

that was more amazing than stars vs. grains of sand.

[@CoachDave12]

the groove that starts @9:04 my goodness

[@tobi5284]

the dummer is fucking phenomenal. HOLY FUCK.

[@bastionfb4028]

New favorite band

[@NathanDahlvik]

This band is amazing but why the backing track???? Seems a good pianist would kill to play for this band

[@christopherburke2348]

I believe it's because their guitarist Yvette writes and plays all the piano parts herself.

[@Boujonzu]

Thought the same thing

[@gab_gallard]

It's not so easy to find a band member. You basically need to live with them. Committing to a band is almost as getting married. Maybe they had some auditions but didn't found someone they think fits.

[@donald-parker]

She is so adorable and BADASS all at once. If there is ever another LOTR movie, she must have a part.

[@saedt]

Man they got sooooo much better with time. They're so much tighter now.

[@thebattleofactium]

fabulous work!!!!!

[@Solitairetechno]

GODAM that sea dragon break at 23:17 is on repeat

[@TheHorrorExperiment]

Math Rock is awesome, Yvette Young's fucking hot

[@fhare666]

Wow! Great stuff!

[@PurpleGlobe]

The host is so nervous. Poor girl.

[@blakkmetal-wizkokk]

the hosts on audiotree *always* seem super nervous, the guy in the Remo Drive one and the girl in the Pinegrove one come to mind.

[@satanlovesme]

Can we talk about how hard this drummer goes tho

[@inpy]

Yeah that guy took my attention, even if I generally don't pay as much attention to drums as to other instruments when first listening

[@justice_was_taken]

Idk the bass player kills it too, they are all great. I think I like this live recording better than the album because it’s mixed better. Guitar is a little hard to hear at times on the album, like those crazy licks on the guitar in hydra @ 16:21

[@jnilton7135]

instrumental maravilhoso, extraordinario,,, amei

[@gleventhal]

I think more high mids on the bass (hearing more of the string sound/ grindy sounding bass) would complement their sound better than the more subdued low-endy bass sound. It's all great either way though, you guys are rocking.

[@kensmechanicalaffair]

He might have the tone knob backed off, thats a bright sounding bass.

[@brianmclaughlin5764]

Yvette, do you know Kai-ting Zhang of Elephant Gym?? Very much in similar musical aesthetic. But on bass.

[@virgillewis6240]

A supergroup with Yvette, Kai-ting, and Nathan Camarena from Chon would literally be the single coolest band ever
