LISTEN ON TOUR MERCH CONTACT

YVES are a high-octane three piece formed in 2016, consisting of frontman Harry Roke, bassist Mitchell Dodson and powerhouse drummer Finn Wilkinson. YVES produce arena-sized rock tunes, where soaring vocal melodies are met by a muscle of bass and drums. Their songs are stadium-ready, hand-crafted anthems.

The band have cut their teeth at many of the UK’s major festivals including The Isle Of Wight Festival, Reading + Leeds, Y Not, Tramlines and Truck Festival. Their anthem-laced sound saw the band support the likes of The Sherlocks, Public Access TV, The Night Café and INHEAVEN on tour dates. Britain's biggest rock 'n' roll clubnight This Feeling have identified the band as a rising name, as have Fred Perry Subculture who featured the band on their ‘Big in 2018’ stating that “calling this band 'one's to watch' would be an understatement”.

In 2018, YVES released their latest offering ‘Hell From Your Hello’ produced by Lee Slater (Lana Del Rey, The Vaccines, Peace). The monster single has been described as a "sucker-punch of slick riffs and rock 'n' roll". In March 2018 the band embarked on their first UK headline tour which included sell-out dates in Cardiff, Newcastle, Birmingham and their hometown show in Swindon.

Praise from press and music blogs has been backed by statistics; the band's first single of 2017 ‘Only One’ (released 26th April 2017) received 100,000 streams on Spotify in its first two weeks. The band's third single of 2017 'You Wanna Know' (released 30th June 2017) was a much-anticipated release and was featured on Spotify's 'New Music Friday' within six minutes of its release. The track went on to have 50,000 streams in its first week alone. In addition to this iTunes/Apple Music US featured the song in third place of its Rock 'Hot Tracks' feature alongside luminaries such as Foo Fighters, Queens Of The Stone Age and Royal Blood. The immediacy of their music was highlighted when YVES were listed in the Spotify 'Viral 50' chart in May 2017, where they were the tenth most-shared track in the UK with 'Only One’.
