Clap Your Hands Say Yeah Commit Some Loud Blunder

By Matt Littlefair (CHARTattack) April 16, 2007 4:30 pm
This hurts, it really does. Clap Your Hands Say Yeah are a band you love to cheer for. They've self-released two stellar records to critical and fan acclaim and they've garnered a pretty noteworthy live reputation. Sadly, on this night it just wasn't meant to be. Sound problems and an oversized venue crippled the fivesome from Brooklyn by way...

Clap Your Hands Say Yeah — Some Loud Thunder

in
By Noah Love (CHARTattack) January 30, 2007 2:32 pm

By Noah Love (CHARTattack) December 20, 2005 12:07 pm
Proper accolades should be handed out to the biggest indie — and here we mean independent — success of 2005 this side of Hanson. Alec Ounsworth's whimsical vocals and the group's fantastic sense of melody and rhythm made Clap Your Hands Say Yeah one of the feel-good stories of the year. There's so much quality on this record that it's hard to know...
