Episode 69 - Damon Che - Yesness

Order "See You At The Solipsist Convention" By Yesness at https://www.joyfulnoiserecordings.com/products/see-you-at-the-solipsist-convention. This episode I am honored to interview one of my favorite drummers of all time, Damon Che Fitzgerald. He has a brand new band called Yesness with an album about to drop and being released by Joyful Noise Recordings https://www.joyfulnoiserecordings.com/, as well as a US tour planned for early 2025.
The unique duo Yesness, formed by Kristian Dunn (El Ten Eleven) and Damon Che (Don Caballero), came together through astute musical matchmaking. Within a year of their first virtual meeting, their nascent project’s debut record, See You at the Solipsist Convention, was complete. Scaffolded around eight-string bass, knotty percussion, and intricate syncopation, See You at the Solipsist Convention is a carnival of delights for fans of the post-everything persuasion—uncategorizable yet reverent to the altar of instrumental rock. Album opener “Not So Sorry Now Are You” begins as a static-drenched funk bop that blossoms into a sweeping epic.
Quotes:
Damon Che: Aped the double heart throb bass drum pattern from the drummer in my dad’s band I always admired when I was a teenager. I'm glad Kristian put the piano passage in this one. It takes me back to when music was classy without even trying.
Kristian Dunn: This is one of the first songs I decided to add a bit of piano to. The part is ridiculously simple but seems to add some gravitas and still leave plenty of room for Damon to do his thing!
