The rhythm of a 9-5 starts at 7am as an alarm wrestles you from sleep.Teeth brushed, coffee drank you are on your commute. You sweat, you serve, you balance the numbers, get home, devour dinner, swallow TV, catch up on reading to fall asleep. It continues.

How do you get by? Sex? Drugs? Rock and Roll? Is this your real life. This inescapable cycle of repeated events.You worked hard, you were promised more than this, but this is all there is for people like us.

YABBA’s guitar shredding arrival tears this mentality asunder. A raging bass and a near by siren echoing, this song screams at you to question status you, to hold these restrictive systems accountable. Maybe don’t quit your job just yet, but you can certainly change it. This song demands you to challenge predictability, resonating with those of us haunted by the dissatisfaction of this relenting reality. YABBA both exposes and heralds the addictive vices approximately 3.2 million of brits find themselves using to “GET BY”. Another violent cycle, we are all victim to some sort of rhythm in our lives, nut at least we can learn to dance to it.

From Dumfries, South West Scotland, the stirring quintet are prepared for a full scale assault on the normalcy of the indie landscape. A concoction of incomparable sleaze disco, self indulgent track about drug use and addiction, this song would not be a stranger to a rave playlist, it is both melancholic and danceable.

Speaking about their hard edged debut YABBA revealed that “Get By can be used as much like C4 is used to blast the doors off a bank. The song carries the same burden shared with the common people in the UK. GET BY is the theme song Stone Cold Steve Austin wished he had. GET BY is big music, once you hear it you’ll never be the same”

Despite no previous recordings this band have established themselves with a slew of support shows in March 2022, performing alongside the likes of Irish buzz saw band Enola Gay.After being signed by indie revered record label Nice Swan Records they finish the year with slots lined up at Left of the Dial Festival, Swn Fest, Float Along Festival and Mutations festival, to name a few.
