The EP drops on March 26, 2013. Today, the band is pleased to reveal the new album art for the EP, photographed by French photographer Yougo Jeberg. A new video was leaked last night unveiling the art, which can be viewed at this link.

David at Firewater Studios (Korn,Spliknot, Unkle) with the full support of its owner, Billy Graziadei of Biohazard.

YARD OF BLONDES boasts influences beyond folk music by incorporating stoner rock, pop-rock and
indie bits in their music, as well. The band is already well known on the west coast, having performed at
more than 100 shows with other great bands such as Hermane Düne or Alain Johannes (Queens of the
Stone Age), and they have been growing as a full live band on the stages of L.A. clubs such as The Bootleg
Theater, El Cid, The Viper Room, TAIX, Skinny’s Lounge, Hemingway, the Whisky A Go-Go and more.
In 2010, Vincent W. Jacob, a French songwriter and author met Fanny Hill, another French musician in Los
Angeles. They were both looking for something new on the other side of the world. They started YARD
OF BLONDES together and soon took the desert roads to confront themselves to their rock, folk and
stoner influences. In addition to Vincent on vocals / guitars and Fanny on vocals / piano / organ, the two are
joined by Dean Chamberlain on bass guitar, Will Schlich on guitars, and Ben Lecourt on drums.
YARD OF BLONDES are performing in the Los Angeles/Hollywood, CA area three times in the next
month. See below for all confirmed dates:
