YAS is a four-piece band with Alexia on vocals, Max on guitar, Jonas on bass, and Erik on drums. They put out their first album 'Ashes and Diamonds' in 2018, followed by 'Empty Crown' in 2022. The title track from that second record, 'Empty Crown,' along with songs like 'Poison' and 'Ride,' show their mix of alternative rock with pop and electronic touches.
Their lyrics tend to circle around identity and self-discovery, which has connected with some listeners while drawing criticism from others who found their sound too experimental early on. Alexia has been vocal about gender inequality in the music industry, which sparked debate but also drew support.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
