One of the most beloved and respected bands in America, Ira Kaplan, George Hubley and James McNew have enjoyed success entirely on their own terms. The group’s uncompromising nature has been crucial in establishing Yo La Tengo as a cornerstone of experimental indie rock – collaborating with everyone from Homer Simpson to Yoko Ono, portraying the Velvet Underground in “I Shot Andy Warhol” and even creating a holiday tradition unto themselves with their series of Hanukkah shows.

The Hoboken, New Jersey-based group have explored the extremes of feedback-driven noise-rock and sweetly melodic pop, shading their work with equal parts scholarly composure and fannish enthusiasm. Loved by critics, audiences and loyal fans alike, Yo La Tengo embody adventurous eclecticism, defiant independence, and restless creative ambition -- three qualities that virtually guarantee music press acclaim.
