Roots rockers Yarn returned with a roar with their acclaimed 2024 album, Born, Blessed, Grateful & Alive, the North Carolina via NYC's first new album in eight years. With a renewed commitment to touring, frontman/songwriter Blake Christiana regrouped with the band's original rhythm section, Robert Bonhomme and Rick Bugel and hit the road, including an official showcase at Nashville's AmericanaFest and their annual Yarnival Festival. Live Yarn: Vol. 1 was recorded during Yarn's set at the Rooster Walk Music Festival in May 2024 in Axton, VA and features some of the band's most storied and favorite collaborators: Josh Shilling of Wynonna Judd and Mountain Heart fame, Joel Timmons ,Russell Clarke and Ward Buckheister of Sol Driven Train, alongside Isaac Hadden and Caitlin Krisko.

The album was mixed by Joel Weldon Willis (Charlotte, NC) and mastered by Fred Kevorkian (Brooklyn, NY) and will be released digitally, on CD and vinyl on May 2 through Symphonic Distribution.

Christiana says, "This set felt special from the first note. We've chosen live takes from seven fan favorites from our extensive catalog along with tracks from our 2024 tour dates."

Yarn is Blake Christiana, Andrew Trongone, Rick Bugel and Robert Bonhomme.
