Good fucking times - thanks for having us in KEXP

[@smokeythebearhug]

[@mikepeterson5199]

How about a show in Vegas!

[@finctank]

This was amazing lads

[@rachelcolligan570]

[@thomascrawford4276]

What do you say???Shithot!!! 💚☮

[@James-kj9hw]

Sam is an insane guitarist, so underrated.

[@YardActBand]

Not by us. Shippo is the greatest

[@James-kj9hw]

@@YardActBand Thanks for keeping me sane for the past year, you guys fucking rock.

[@mashward3659]

Quality set lads. I'm listening to this from Hanoi, Vietnam. Might be a nice spot for a gig 🤔

[@Bloodbarn]

Not that underrated : he’s on KEXP

[@strappaplank6017]

he is doing the Telecaster proud for sure

[@johnminoia7153]

Found them awhile ago on accident. It was a very happy accident lol they remind me of Cake with more of an edge. Like the knife that cuts through Cake.

[@paulrichardhammond]

Genuinely the most exciting British band I've heard in years - the last bastion of hope this once great nation's music has. and from Yorkshire too. nice one.

[@Luke-cecilpod]

Amazing new band. Gang of 4 vibes.

[@jackeyer8156]

I'd say more Half Man Half Buscuit

[@alexdone5467]

Absolute quality. Been listening to these since they come out and it makes me want to leave south and move up Leeds. Got family up there too fuck London long live Leeds!!!!!

[@gdfugginr]

KEXP is my original source for watching crap loads of Speedy Ortiz, seeing loads of bands I love pop up on here is glorious! Seeing Yard Act in Brighton this week, so hyped

[@MrArtlab]

Brighton Chalk was an amazing show!

[@smokeythebearhug]

Thanks to Troy and KEXP for finding, curating, and sharing great art for the people. Yard Act nailed this set.

[@tekknojunkie]

I'm reminded of The Clash, mixed with CAKE listening to these guys, love it! 🤘😃

[@artboyee]

Cake and Gang of Four

[@Dizzula]

I want a girl with a short skirt and a long trechcoat

[@pacofernandez4591]

and Sleaford Mods :) @@artboyee

[@tribulationsofawastedsociety]

If Mike Skinner, John Cooper Clarke and The Fall formed a supergroup. Cocksure attitude, a lively bassline, and bucket loads of northern wit

[@steve40092]

bit of early happy mondays 24hour and bummed era too, plus ian dury & the blockheads, and a little pulp too i reckon

[@seanallen2152]

Feeling awkward with comments / replies, not done before, but fuck yes we are in the precence of creative and political artists.

[@AKAtAGG]

I've never been one to be proud of a place i am from, but I am from Leeds so I take pleasure knowing that at least this city provided us with at least one great thing. That thing being Yard Act.

[@danplaysbass6294]

You should be proud.

[@rightreverendcraig]

Yard Act - I have listened to this session 4 times since yesterday trying to work out what's missing when it dawned on me that there's absolutely nowt missing! This is a close to perfection as it gets, can't wait to see you when you're back in the UK.

[@HightownPirates]

Album/band of the year, saw them in Hackney few weeks ago...this set is better, i like the fact James is singing a bit more ..lovely stuff

[@kathenry7904]

I literally just discovered this band. I get a lot of music suggestions on KZbin because of all the different music I listen to. The song was Trenchcoat Museum. My first thought after how great the song is was that they definitely have performed on KEXP. Lo and behold

[@iangelling]

I’m too old for the “best latest band” schtick, but I saw these in Leicester and the were remarkable. Go and see them. Buy their stuff. Make them make more music.Make James take his coat off. Although I notice he is wearing it here.

[@Bleech606]

The leader singger looks like he could be the bastard son of the lead singer of The Cardiacs.

[@damon-tang]

Jay Russell is my all time favourite drummer. Sounds so good!

[@jm76vd]

This band is so brilliant and insanely awesome..Thanks KEXP for showing another amazing rock band.. Now I’m going to go in the rabbit hole on KZbin find everything they did

[@payamlashkari7398]

This is so different in so many ways. It has some cool paradoxes in the songs. Keep doing what you're doing Yard Act!

[@sumtin05698]

if the talking heads and the dead Kennedys had baby that liked funk

[@pacolopez4032]

@@czofnas I hear a lot of the Fall in their music too personnally

[@loyolaschool]

Rhythm Guitar is a lost art. So is the art of soloing with triads. I love their raw sound and right sounds.

[@strumbadstroller7350]

If you are lucky enough to see them play live they are incredible!

[@imdrnickriviera]

This band kicks so much ass!

[@Gregoryismnz]

Yard has been my new fav band right from when I heard them a few months ago

[@cityboy9301]

I saw then in February at bodega club Nottingham. Fucking totally amazing.james and Sam both took the time for a chat afterwards.. I'm blown away by the album and treasure it as part of my toolkit to face the apocalypse... standing round hand in hand watching the world 🌍 burn.....

[@frednouvertne4216]

Nice! Guitar reminds me a bit of Andy Gil Gang Of Four...

[@nevetsnolog]

They got the sound, content and groove. Interesting guitar playing. I'm in. Bowery Ballroom NYC Oct 14.

[@Allen1029]

Wow. They won me over right quick.

[@ittybittyboat9017]

Been watching these guys for a while and they've evolved so much live, really coming into their own. Love James's weird little ad-libs and how everyone has a mic now! See you in NYC later this year!

[@queenzam]

It's Talking Heads inspiration it's pretty obvious. Great band.

[@TheJonnyzeus]

Fantastic band. Love it. Very complex. Reminds me of Korean band Lenalchi…driving bass…

[@EXQCmoi]

This is a very nice little band. they could be the next big thing.

[@strappaplank6017]

lovely Tele sound, they are the offspring of Gang Of Four

[@dearestnora]

There's so many good bands coming out of the UK right now, and Yard Act might be the best.

[@jackriley8156]

there is nobody in the business like these guys

[@sarapetrakis7136]

Oh yeah this was legendary, so glad it got recorded

[@ethanhahahaha]

YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[@rufante79]

The fall + the talking heads

[@jordanwhittaker4769]

Simply the best new band out there. Not only was I honored to get on the guest list at the show. They all came out to sign records and just talk with their Fans. Nobody does THAT anymore. They have a life long fan in ME! 🖖

[@steve40092]

check out fellow west yorksers Working Mens Club they're fekin imense too

[@gubbin909]

Utterly fantastic

[@KevKavanagh]

If John Cooper Clarke had a band. This is a find, very impressed!

[@waynesilverman3048]

Big up his legend vinyl shop in leeds and good for flyers jumbo rec

[@dimatraktirkin9180]

Временами музыка похоже на Franz Ferdinand, на Gang of Four.

[@lando.z]

Great tunes lads! I'll see you this summer in Sicily!

[@Gnomaxx]

Will U come to France ? Bordeaux for example... :)

[@dredracing]

If I could like this a million times still wouldn't be enough

[@sinisterbuthappy208]

Great set !

[@cg7025]

Weeeeee all hate Leeds, and Leeds, and Leeds!!! Leeds, Leeds, Leeds are falling apart again!!! Banging lads. Instant addiction! Sam is stupendous!! Hearing a little bit of Alex T, a little bit of Nick C, a little bit of Rev and the M, a little bit of magic! A lad from the Lane, in Yorkshire's capital, Sheffield. You know it makes sense! Dus tha know. Get theesens t'Leadmill!

[@TinaHyde]

I’m pretty sure the lead vocalist has a Superman costume on under his clothes. 🦸🏻‍♂️

[@nelsonsmith9284]

History has been sculptured to favour those how walk tall. Hands behind there backs they reach for the skies of old. Lies and stories twisted like barley to feed your souls.

[@jackeyer8156]

HMHB amped up...

[@struebz]

How am I only seeing this?! This has just made me even more sad that I’m not around to see them on their UK tour next month

[@edwardkrawczak8927]

Love the UK punk vibes

[@-doggy-6670]

[@johnnymonsteroficial]

[@cityboy9301]

I saw them February at Nottingham bodega club the night before Russia started the war in ukraine.i only hope they get a second album out before the impending apocalypse..boomshanka..
