ARTIST
A-Z
Yo La Tengo
Georgia Hubley (drums/ vocals), Ira Kaplan (guitars/vocals), and James McNew (bass vocals) formed Yo La Tengo in 1985. The kind of band to name drop if you really want to impress your indie-music obsessed mates, Yo La Tengo are anything but ordinary. From screeching art-rock and jangling pop songs to electronic soundscapes and hushed lullabies, Yo La Tengo push the musical barrier further than any other band.
John Peel spotted their genius early and got them playing a Peel Session that went down as one of the all time greatest live recordings the band has ever made.
The name "Yo La Tengo," when translated into Spanish means "extra mayo, please." Fact.
