YUCA have performed over 375 shows over the past 5 years earning them international attention as well as plenty of awards and recognition. Their future looks very bright.
Matt Borck (lead vox and guitar), Andy Boldt (bass and bg vox), and Dave Atkinson (drums) performed multiple times during the 2010 Vancouver Olympics including having a song placed in the PS3 and Xbox360 video game. They have shared stages with The Killers, AFI, De La Soul, Hot Hot Heat, Theory of a Deadman, Default, and Econoline Crush.
They’ve been to Japan twice including headlining Rocktoberfest. It’s possible you’ve seen them on TV on shows such as Urban Rush, Global TV, and CTV.
Rebuilding The Fallen Empire is on the verge of making my speakers explode with raw passion, epic frequencies, and pure emotion.
I’m driving down this lonely highway, windows down with the pedal to the medal and not a care in front of me. At any second now the sounds blasting from my speakers are about to lift my car off the ground and send me flying through the atmosphere.
As my stomach tries to force itself through my throat and I begin fearing for the worst, a calming sensation blankets me and I realize we are floating into oblivion… and I couldn’t be happier.
Rebuilding the Fallen Empire is the soundtrack to my adventure.
“The title has a double meaning,” says Matt Borck, YUCA’s primary songwriter, singer-guitarist. “It means reviving rock n’ roll, but it’s also personal. We’ve been in the trenches and working our butts off for the band, so it also symbolizes making our dreams a reality.”
YUCA have created a classic. Go get your copy.
