The Language That Binds Us All: Jacob Fred Jazz Odyssey and Mike Dillon Band

Estimated read time 11 min read

Music is all about connectivity. It is nothing short of miraculous how human beings called musicians create vibrations that mingle together to forge cohesive (or dissonant) sounds that then float through space and time to find the ears of other human beings who in turn interpret what they hear through words, dance, and visual mediums creating a web of interconnected thoughts and ideas that spread out into the universe infinitely.

Since their inception in 2007, Yarn has become one of the hardest touring bands of this generation. The band’s sound straddles the divide between Bluegrass, Americana and Jam; the result is extremely pleasing to the ears and the soul.
