Bio

Acquiring their name from band founder Duncan Future's dream about being arrested for dealing drugs in his old school by a police woman called 'The Yearner Baby, the band played 14 festivals in '09 including the Main Stages of Secret Garden Party, Guilfest and Lounge On The Farm.

The bands onstage weaponry includes trombone, trumpet, violin and mean moves.

If that doesn’t get the crowd going the bands dramatic story-led songs about the characters of Yearnerland, character paintings and the possibility of an onstage visit mid-song by the characters themselves, such as 'Jonathan Livingston' the giant dancing seagull or Pablo the legendary Mexican villain of Yearnerland, always will!

The bands 10 date tour at the start of April will coincide with their single release to further elevate the bands momentum and hype before a full blooded summer of fun.

WHAT THE PRESS SAID;

"Impressive ... Dizzee Rascal’s set stole the feel good factor award for the weekend, though Ladyhawke, Hadouken and Yearner Babies came close".
VIRTUAL FESTIVALS (review of Beach Break Live '09)

“The male and female vocalists both excelled on the mainstage…showing elation on their faces they commanded the whole area…I’ve not stopped singing ‘Icarus’ since…one to look out for".
MUSIC-ZINE.COM (review of Secret Garden Party)

Songs full of passion and energy...combines shape-throwing charisma with genuine singing talent. Worth missing Billy Childish for? Damn Yes".
(MUSO'S GUIDE (Review of Lounge On The Farm '09)

“bang whoosh scream in an instant ...the tempo goes through the ceiling I’m listening to the Bookhouse Boys spliced with the Melys, fronted by a gorgeous Hilary Swank look-a-like...my new favourite band”
