After getting their feet wet in the Capital District as Blake and the Family Dog, this bluegrassy rock band hit its stride in the Brooklyn Americana scene and became Yarn. They shot to the front of the crowded pack, collaborating with Edie Brickell and John Oates, and winning a Grammy nomination. Theyve now pulled up stakes and joined the burgeoning Americana world of North Carolina and released a new album, This is the Year. Calling it rugged and assured, No Depression writes: Comparisons are inevitable -- Pure Prairie League, Dan Fogelberg, hints of Poco and the Flying Burrito Brothers -- but Yarns mastery of the country-rock idiom is indisputable.
