Bio: YES GIANTESS
Birthed at the nexus of 2008 and 2009, Yes Giantess was never meant to last more than a few weeks. Members of the band ... (more) previously played in former incarnations of Passion Pit, the Death Set and so many more. What was to one off party music for them to play with friends suddenly found an online audience

Based out of Boston the four Berkley students were suddenly being asked to play shows across the Atlantic. Their tracks have lit up blog-savvy dancefloors, with high profile pop producers offering the unsigned band their services. The band have just finished recording tracks with the likes of Richard X (Kelis), Hannah Robinson (Ladyhawke) and former Sneaker Pimp Liam Howe.

“We want to bring music back to that point when it was totally bad ass to be a pop star,” says singer Jan. Their songs are equally pre-ordained for electro clubs.

September sees the band support Little Boots across the States, followed by dates with MSTRKRFT, Calvin Harris and Clipse. In October they return to the UK for the NME Radar Tour prior to CMJ.

*** Golden Silvers (XL) – True Romance (completed but unreleased)
*** Passion Pit (French Kiss) - Sleepyhead
*** Erik Hassle (Island) – Don’t Bring Flowers (completed on white label we are allowed to give away wherever online)
