LISTEN TO A TRACK BY YELLOW LIGHT GO...


Yellow Light Go!, hailing from Baton Rouge, LA, was formed in the winter of 2004. What started out as the random musical ideas left over from a previous, now defunct band turned into actual songwriting sessions between long-time friends Chris Jessup and Joshua Nee. The two began an on-the-side musical endeavor with Baton Rouge drumming veteran Joey Breland (Chris Leblanc Band, Warbabies, Mike Pinter 4) and feverishly began churning out the songs that would become the core of Yellow Light Go! sets. Nee's roomate, guitarist Spencer Johnson, joined son thereafter and the newly founded quartet was on its way, playing shows to very responsive crowds around Baton Rouge. A slight roster change saw local jazz drummer phenom Jonathan Grimes replace Breland behind the drums, and the lineup was complete. Since completion, Yellow Light Go! has performed with bands such as Liquid Sand, Common Curtis, The Terms, and has been scouted by both Geffen and Epic Records.

With the personal inflections of each member's distinct musical stylings evident in each song, Yellow Light Go! offers a fresh look at pop rock. While one song resembles At the Drive-In, the next may be reminiscent of Guster. Defying any kind of all-emcompassing classification, Yellow Light Go!'s sound remains a curious, fresh one, prompting music listeners and fellow musicians to admit they've never really heard anything quite like it.
