Yearling formed in Los Angeles in the early 2010s around vocalist Anya Taylor, guitarist Ethan James, and bassist Mateo Rivera. Their debut single 'Holiday' gained attention for its ethereal harmonies and introspective lyrics, helping establish their blend of indie rock, folk, and dream pop.
Their first album 'Ephemeral' came out in 2016, followed by 'Reverie' in 2019 and 'Bloom' in 2022. Taylor's lyrics often touched on mental health and social justice themes, which drew both support and criticism from listeners.
They continued releasing music through these challenges, maintaining a presence in the indie scene without the dramatic rise-and-fall narrative sometimes attached to their story.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
