Yellerkin by Jacob Wayler
Pro yellers and childhood friends, Adrian Galvin and Luca Buccellati, is Brooklyn-based folk electronic band Yellerkin.
There has been some seriously good music coming out of Brooklyn of late but there is a real rawness to Yellerkin’s new track ‘Tools’ that truly sets it apart. The pulsating track howls energy and emotion, and the changes in tempo at 2:30 and 3:00 is magic.
“Tools is a kind of anthemic generational song, but one that tows the line between triumph and tragedy” explains Adrian Galvin, who continues “This song is about our limitations; how fucked up it is that we are the generation that bought into all the crap our parents protested against in the 70’s!”

Yellerkin released their self titled debut EP last year. The lead track on the EP, ‘Solar Laws’, is being offered as a free download via their Soundcloud page.
