Grasshoppers are among what is possibly the most ancient living group of chewing herbivorous insects, dating back to the early Triassic period around 250 million years ago. Those species that make easily heard noises usually do so by rubbing a row of pegs on the hind legs against the forewings, this is known as stridulation. Yes grasshopper formed in 2020 and make noises with a guitar and some drums.

Emerging from England’s unforgiving northern coast, this dynamic duo present a wholly unique take on noise rock, with crushing riffs, white water rhythmic twists and barking intertwined vocals making way for heinously catchy hooks. And with the lyrics spinning esoteric tales over such a compelling foundation, Yes Grasshopper won’t let your undivided attention slip for a single second.

Their universe is one where both rage and joy jostle side-by-side, one moment buzzing with all the fury of a swarm of pissed-off mozzies, the next inviting the whole lot round for an unforgettable afterparty.

lyrics

I am a light
blinking through walls
there’s Cracks
In the walls,
glistening all night.
Marrow in your bones
Marrow in your bones
Living in the blast zone
Living in the blast zone
Marrow in your bones
Marrow in your bones
Living in the blast zone

Theres a light that shines
deep in the jungle x4

What’s that smell
What’s that sound
And shining all so bright
What’s that smell
What’s that sound
And shining all so bright
Fucking Go!
And shining all so bright
And shining all so bright
Marrow in your bones
Marrow in your bones
Living in the blast zone
Living in the blast zone
Marrow in your bones
Marrow in your bones
Living in the blast zone

There’s a light that shines
deep in the jungle x4

What’s that smell
What’s that sound
And shining all so bright
