Olden Yolk: “Vital Sign”

By: Jack Anderson

Based out of New York (as opposed to Olden York) the up-and-coming four-piece Olden Yolk releases their debut self-titled this Friday. Initially conceived in 2012 by fronting vocalist and instrumentalist Shane Butler as an outlet to channel single songs, visual art as well as touring and releasing albums with the band Quilt but after the release of a split-record with Weyes Blood in 2014, Olden Yolk became the collaborative entity it is today.

Their “dysfolkian” aesthetic is undeniably infectious but words don’t do Olden Yolk’s sound justice – there’s no need to hold out a WHOLE THREE DAYS – get in there with a free download of Olden Yolk‘s lead single “Vital Sign”!

Their unique placement of feminine falsettos over seductive, sample-and-synth-heavy soundscapes still inspires acts today, not just in the […]

So before touching down to the terrestrial for the weekend, let’s heed a far out beacon from Dallas duo Beekeeper Spaceman. The skeleton crew consists of guitarist-singer-songwriter Greg Brownderville and producer/multi-instrumentalist Spencer Kenney, who named themselves after […]
