Nestled at the intersection of technical proficiency, emotional resonance, and ethereal soundscapes lies the instrumental prowess of Covet, a band that has been captivating listeners with their unique blend of math rock, post-rock, and ambient elements. In a musical landscape often dominated by vocals, Covet stands out as an instrumental force.

Formed in 2014, Covet consists of the immensely talented trio of Yvette Young (guitar), David Adamiak (bass), and Forrest Rice (drums). Yvette Young, in particular, has been a driving force, not only showcasing her exceptional guitar skills but also contributing to the band's distinctive aesthetic with her unique fingerstyle approach.

Covet's music transcends traditional genre boundaries, seamlessly blending elements of math rock's complex time signatures with the emotive qualities of post-rock. The result is a musical tapestry that is as technically impressive as it is emotionally stirring. Yvette's expressive guitar work takes center stage, effortlessly shifting from intricate and fast-paced riffs to ambient and atmospheric passages.

Covet's discography, including albums like "effloresce" (2018) and "technicolor" (2020), showcases their evolution as musicians and their commitment to pushing the boundaries of instrumental rock. Tracks like "shibuya" and "glimmer" stand out as prime examples of the band's ability to convey a wide range of emotions without uttering a single word.
