YACHT is a conceptual pop group based in Los Angeles, California. It’s the brainchild of Jona Bechtolt and Claire L. Evans, whose wide-ranging interests and deep-seated ADD cause YACHT to frequently metamorphose: from band to belief system, from disco infiltrators to punk rockers, from performance artists to graphic designers, publishers, sculptors, or philosophers.
YACHT was born in 2002 in Portland, Oregon, as a solo cross-disciplinary experiment for Jona Bechtolt, using technology to extend physical boundaries of communication, performance, and music. In 2008, after a shared mystical experience in the Far West Texas desert, Bechtolt was joined in the YACHT endeavor by longtime collaborator Claire L. Evans. Spurred by this paranormal bond, this new incarnation of YACHT wrote and recorded the critically-acclaimed See Mystery Lights in Marfa, Texas. This album was followed in 2011 by Shangri-La, a genre-defying concept album about utopia, dystopia, and every place in between.
Currently, the Straight Gaze, Robert “Bobby Birdman” Kieswetter and Jeffrey “Jerusalem” Brodsky, round out the live YACHT band. YACHT’s heart is in their live shows, which they call “Temporary Autonomous Zones:” uncluttered, anarchic, inspiring sessions of damaged dance moves and coded ritualism, backed by constantly changing elements—Power Point presentations, audience Q&A sessions, and shamanistic video environments.
YACHT has toured with LCD Soundsystem, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Hot Chip, Architecture in Helsinki, Vampire Weekend, The Dirty Projectors, and Chairlift; YACHT is multidisciplinary enough to have been paired with the Chemical Brothers, the Breeders, and Phoenix; YACHT has played on boats, in caves, in bathrooms, in art galleries and museums, in rural China, and at the Hollywood Bowl; YACHT are prolific remixers, dismantling songs by Snoop Dogg, Kings of Leon, Phoenix, Neon Indian, Stereolab, RATATAT, Classixx, and many more.
Bechtolt has been a promiscuous genre-smasher since his adolescence, when he opted to tour in a punk band over attending high school. He’s plied his unique breed of beat-heavy laptop wizardry and grunge ethos to endless collaborations, both as producer and drummer, with west coast mainstays like Devendra Banhart, The Blow, Little Wings, and Bobby Birdman. He’s also been recognized by such bigwigs as David Byrne, who name-dropped Bechtolt’s production on The Blow’s Paper Television in his Artforum Top 10 list, Paris’ Centre Georges Pompidou, where he was commissioned for a large-scale performance, and Vibe Magazine, who touted Bechtolt as “indie rock’s Timbaland.”
Evans joined the band full-time in 2008. She’s a science writer and artist who pens a popular blog about the intersection of art and science, Universe, for National Geographic’s ScienceBlogs network. She has lectured at MoMA PS1, The Kitchen, The Smithsonian, and the Portland Institute for Contemporary Art, spoken at the Rubin Museum of Art about extraterrestrial life, co-written a book about technology and art at Carnegie Mellon University, made commissioned films for the World Science Festival and SEED Magazine, and has collaborated with Bechtolt on literally hundreds of projects since they met in 2004.

No fairy tale here folks. No love story to be told. Tweak Bird is two brothers in LA from Southern Illinois who just love to turn up and jam. Baritone guitar properly fuzzed, and an oversized drum kit passed down from the Melvins’ Dale Crover make up the meatloaf, and the smooth yet broken tandem vocals drizzle the ketchup on top. Is it Filet Mignon? Nope! But who eat’s that shit anyway? Its heavy rock with lite vocals. …are you getting this yet? Live shows are fun because you get the feeling that the hinges could come off at any moment. …and guess what? Sometimes it happens, and it’s a total disaster, but, it’s still more entertainment than a lame ass beep beep boop robot show. Plus Tweak Bird’s not famous so you probably won’t pay more than 10 bucks to seem them. Done deal.
Since 2008, the Bird brothers have released two full-length studio
albums and two EP’s. The band has also done some heavy touring in the
last 5 years headlining in the US and in Europe as well as supporting
tours with some slick acts like Tool, Melvins, Big Business, Black
Mountain and Ted Leo and the Pharmacists. - Tweakbird.com

TYVEK is a brand of flashspun high-density polyethylene fibers from Detroit, Michigan.
Tyvek began in 2004 when Kevin Boyer, Larry Williams, and Matt
Ziolkowski, three friends and music fans fed up with the redundant
garage rock then clogging the proverbial pipeline, decided to form a
punk band. In late 2012 original drummer
Matt Z. stepped down, replaced by Beren Elkine (formerly of Eat Skull,
the Intelligence) whose style is at once driving and loose, meshing
seamlessly with Tyvek's signature sound while revving it up. Her
insistent beat moves the crowd and propels the band into new territory.
Their latest full-length, On Triple Beams (In The Red, 2012), has Tyvek
venturing into a more roomy, melodic headspace without sacrificing any
of their bite or thud in the process.
THE WOOLEN MEN will be fresh off their European tour. You love them.
THE BUGS are a 2-piece rock and roll band who have been toiling in obscurity and creating an impressive discography since 1998.
