   About Your Yellow Dress
What people have sad about us...
"Smiley low-fi folk pop originating in sunny so-Cal - think of a summer dress like the kind you'd wear to the beach or to an idyllic afternoon on a tire swing over a swimming hole in the forest."
-This is Not a Record Label



Friend us on Facebook!

Currently we are working on a song cycle about Orange County, California that will eventually become and album of some kind this spring. Shortly after that we plan to tour the country to promote the album and hang out with awesome friends and musicians.

Concurrently, song are also being written based on other counties in california. This Counties of California project will be on going with EP's, singles, and albums being released based on the different counties in california, so after Orange County there will only be 57 more left to do!

We'd love to play a show everywhere thats anywhere with in the bay area or southern california. Just send us a message or email us: alexposka [at] berkeley.edu!

when did you guys stop sucking? and turn the auto-tune off bubble gum. It ruins it. And turn the horns down on Swallows.

So, Adam passed on your music to me and it is soooo fantastic.

That being said, I missed your show this past weekend and I think it would be in everyone's best interest for you guys to come back and play again in KC!
