Say Yes, Do Nothing: Making Tunes to Enforce Change.
Say Yes, Do Nothing is a special band from across the seas in London. They write songs that become a way of social commentary and poetic street reports on personal run ins with controversial topics like racism and abortion. They’re true to their name all the way down to every lyric. It’s easy for all of us to say “yes” or agree with what we think it’s right but, it’s a lot harder to help make that change with your own to hands. Many of us never will. A recent gig review by Rock Box raved, “Say Yes Do Nothing combine north London grit with Nashville dirt to produce a distinctive mix that’s both timeless and aggressively up-to-date. Antics such as throwing band t-shirts and paper dosh (fake, I think…) into the crowd grabbed the attention but never detracted from takin’ care of the real business at hand... It’s a while since I’ve witnessed a set with as much sheer drive and ‘hey, look’ as this, yet clearly underpinned by deeply rooted Americana song craft.”
In solidarity with the Black Lives Matter protesters across the USA, Say Yes, Do Nothing, a Yank Rock band from London, have covered Buffalo Springfield's "For What It's Worth".
