PRESS HIGHLIGHT

2021 Rolling Stone magazine : https://www.rollingstone.fr/la-playlist-de-la-redaction-143/
“The latest American single from Yard of Blondes, "Hummingbird" is a heady little bit of alt rock, stuffed with guitars with clever riffs and a refreshing Seventies patina.” —Rolling Stone magazine

2021 Pavillon666 : https://www.pavillon666.fr/webzine/chroniques/chroniques-albums-cd/chroniques-albums-cd-detail.php?groupe=12053
“Ce disque est une pure merveille. Servi par une production irréprochable, un son rock qui fait du bien aux oreilles…. J’ai pris un plaisir incroyable à écouter et réécouter cet album qui mérite de figurer dans votre discothèque au plus vite. Ne passez surtout pas à côté de cette pépite. (…) La suite logique est cet album, « Feed the moon », qui devrait leur ouvrir les portes d’un succès international mérité.“

2021 Frontstage Magazine :https://frontstage-magazine.de/2021/05/16/teamreview-yard-of-blondes-feed-the-moon/
"Yard Of Blondes deliver with their debut album "Feed the Moon" honest, uncompromising rock, as I miss it on the festival stages here with us. With their new album, the band manages to take us back to the time between 2007-2010, when the Hurricane Festival still had acts like Nine Inch Nails, Kasabian, The Mars Volta , or Bush on the line-up. A revival is due. “ U Drive Me Crazy ”, for example, is one of those songs on the record that fits perfectly into any summer rock festival that we currently miss so much. "

2021 I’m Music Magazine https://im-musicmagazine.com/f/album-review-yard-of-blondes-feed-the-moon
"To compare YardofBlondes to anyone else would be unfair, as they have their own unique sound, however it's easy to be reminded of the early days of Foo Fighters with their dirty grunge style. "

2021 Sound Vapors https://soundvapors.com/yard-of-blondes-release-new-song-video-for-hummingbird
"It’s dark, distorted and seemingly alternatively tuned. In short – it rocks. (...) The drums and bass give this song the backbone & groove and boy does this thing groove.(...) I’ll always lean towards songs that have great harmonies but when you do them in a half step-by-step basis.. even better. " 

2021 Tour Worthy https://www.tourworthy.com/articledetails/to-live-and-diy-in-la-yard-of-blondes
"Yard of Blondes are in full control of what they’re doing, and they’re doing it with style." –John Montoya 

2021 Silence Magazine (Germany) https://silence-magazin.de/silence-musicfriday-16 "With “Hummingbird”, YARD OF BLONDES not only initiate the final phase before the release of their new album “Feed The Moon”. The grunge rockers from Los Angeles also dig deep into the wounds of American history. YARD OF BLONDES denounce that so-called “self-defense” of white police officers often ends fatally for black civilians. "

2021 La Timothèque https://latimotheque.wordpress.com/2021/02/20/yard-of-blondes-un-colibri-muscle/?fbclid=IwAR3X4qyr-MerdWi45hI6mZt8BWxjSKQG4dPlhfjv8R5l9RBWbT2JZ6X201M
" Un morceau qui arrive comme un direct à l’estomac à grand coup de basse qui tabasse et de refrains tubesques, et qui fait monter la pression comme il faut quant à l’attente de leur première galette. Ecrit en 2016 après la fusillade de Michael Brown à Ferguson, le titre n’en est pas moins brûlant d’actualité, comme en témoignent les tragédies de George Floyd et Breonna Taylor l’année dernière. "

2021 - KOBZR (Germany) https://www.kobzr-magazine.de/cd-reviews/y/yard-of-blondes-hummingbird/
" The future is now called YARD OF BLONDES - the band marries claim with directness and musical excellence. "

" about ‘Do You Need More’: If snarling guitars and pummeling rhythms are your thing, you’ll need more. "

2020 Blood makes Noise https://bloodmakesnoise.net/home/blog/yard-of-blondes-release-killer-new-single-do-you-need-more-from-upcoming-new-album
“Do U need more” is one of the best singles I have heard this year. This is the first time I caught myself listening to a song on repeat that isn’t a band I am working with, I have already liked or producing myself. "

2020 Music’s Metaphor https://musicsmetaphor.com/la-band-yard-of-blondes-and-the-haunting-grunge-rock-single-do-you-need-more/
“Do You Need More?” has already received raving reviews and been added to Spotify editorial Playlist All New Rock. "

" Yard Of Blondes are a new force on the alternate rock scene. "

2020 Jorg’s World / Brecon Review https://joergausingolstadt.de/2020/11/18/yard-of-blondes-review/?v=7516fd43adaa
" their spread of cultural influences is a core reason they are quite distinguishable from other Indie Bands; extraordinary standouts, This lot makes atypically solid and creative choices "

« Le constat est évident, l’album s’annonce énorme et le groupe comme une référence. »
« Avec « Do You Need More ? », Yard Of Blondes nous met l’eau à la bouche: on en redemande. »

Bio

 “A heady little bit of alt-rock, stuffed with guitars with clever riffs and a refreshing Seventies patina.” —Rolling Stone magazine

The emerging French/Californian rock band YARD OF BLONDES is composed of Vincent Jacob (vocals/guitar), Fanny Hill (bass/vocals), Burak Yerebakan (guitar), and Forrest Mitchell (drums/vocals). Yard Of Blondes was first remarked in 2013 by Rodney Bingenheimer, legendary KROQ DJ, who began playing their track Murderology on his show. 

After playing all the venues around LA and a tour in their native France, the band was then featured on the compilation «I love you all the time» along with Eagles Of Death Metal, Florence & The Machine, Kings Of Leon, JimmyEat World, and many more. 

Yard of Blondes released its acclaimed debut album on May 19th, 2021. It was produced by Billy Graziadei, the legendary founder of Biohazard and hardcore legend. The album was mixed by Michael Patterson (Nine Inch Nails, Beck, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club,...) and mastered by Maor Applebaum (Faith No More).
