Your prayers have been answered!  Criptcast Ep. 7 is here!  Today's conversation with John Yakovou, who records under the moniker The Yak. His album is called "Four Corners"  and you should download it from Bandcamp, maybe before you finish reading this intro.  It's so good.  He describes the album as "unapologetically rock n roll"

The music satisfies like Built to Spill or Jack White, in that the songs sound like something you've heard before but they have been washed and tumbled dry in 2017, looking back and forward at once, like the best kind of time travel. If you were to imagine John's music as a cocktail, you'd have 1oz Neil Young and Crazy Horse with Pavement as the mixer, and a slice of The Band for garnish, shaken not stirred in a Colorado shaped cocktail mixer.  John is an amazing guitarist and he  explains the alchemy of solos, we talk about trying to keep breathing while Trump is president,  and he plays an incredible solo acoustic version of his song "Vaguely" which will break your heart.  Check out the album here:https://theyak.bandcamp.com/
