Yellow Red Sparks are an incredible breath of fresh air. They contradict every aspect of the area's shallow monotony that so many of us have grown numb to. YRS's music matches their attitudes: kind, subtle and thought provoking. No more than three instruments used at once, accompanied by Josh Hansen's melodic voice projecting his dark and riveting lyrics. Songs like "Buy Me Honey," a true folk-love song that will kick you in the stomach and still puts a smile on your face.
