Concert Schedule

Progressive Rock band YYNOT to hit the road in 2021 in advance support of their forthcoming ORIGINAL ALBUM “Light And Shade”. Their first stop August 26th in Agoura Hills, CA. Headlining the Canyon Club. As with most performers, 2020 saw the band having to cancel or postpone all of their shows, so the band used the time to make a new album and more personal preparation for the return of live dates. Says producer/songwriter/guitarist Billy Alexander; “because we each live thousands of miles away from each other since the beginning of the band’s creation, we were already sort of built for doing our own ‘homework’ on our own respectively, so in the past we’d fly in to a city and perform a 2 hour show of Rush and original material without even a single rehearsal so we had to be VERY prepared. So if anything, this extra time has allowed us to get even more prepared and laser-focused.” The band considers themselves as a ‘hybrid’ in terms of paying tribute to the band Rush as well as incorporating plenty of original material from their 3 albums. Says bassist Tim Starace; “we don’t call ourselves a Rush tribute band per se, one because we play so much original material live but also because we are a 4 piece with a 21 year old female singer. However, the Rush material we do play, we treat with great care and respect for the music, the sounds and the vibe of early Rush. Because we each love that music and that band so much.” Speaking of the original material, fans of Rush will without a doubt hear the heavy influence on their original material. Vocalist Rocky Kuner; “we intentionally color the original songs with some of that Rush “DNA” but underneath it we let our own personalities and other influences breath as well.” Says drummer Mike Hetzel; “this band is so fun in that we get to have a blast playing all these Rush classics while still getting to do our own thing musically.”
