Bio
Fronted by brothers Matt & Pierce Backes, the yarrows formed in 2002 in a once-abandoned boy scout lodge in rural New Jersey. Through a process of experimentation, desire, and plenty of failure, the yarrows delevoped immediate and often urgent songs, sweeping soundscapes, a sound that’s not naïve and not ironic, created with palpable care.
