Meet the Yeah Yeah Yeahs

In addition to exciting new bar openings, this site will feature the work of off-the-radar, up-and-coming indie bands that don't receive much attention in the mainstream media. To that end, here's the new single for the buzz-worthy New York trio called The Yeah Yeah Yeahs... led by the fashionable Karen Oh, whose father is Sadaharu Oh -- “The Japanese Babe Ruth.”

I expect big things from these kids!

    Wow, they are pretty good.
    Do you think they'll find any places willing to let them play? Or maybe if they're stuck playing in friends' basements and stuff, is there any way to know where this will be?

    It's amazing how many singers' fathers are famous baseball players too! Madonna, Beyonce, Alicia Keys, and Celine Dion too. Seems like too much of a coincidence to me...what do you think?

    I'm glad this new, undiscovered NYC band feature was such a big hit... I'll have to do it again. Maybe the Strokes or Interpol? Perhaps next April 1.
