Yarn owes as much to Gram Parsons and Earl Scruggs as to Jerry Garcia and Exile On Main Street-era Rolling Stones. Following in a fine tradition that includes forward thinking roots bands like The Flying Burrito Brothers, New Riders of The Purple Sage and Ryan Adams & The Cardinals, Yarn weaves roots musical idioms into a fresh, exciting sound that turns on hipsters and country fans alike. Edie Brickell, anticipating a performance with Yarn, summed it up: "I'm excited to get to sing with this band. they have a lot of heart and soul." Yarn gotten a bit of buzz and excited international press about their last release, Empty Pockets, which has been in the national AMA charts since October 2008 (reaching #5) and made the Ballot for the 2009 Grammy Awards in several categories.
