The Brighton-based band -- comprising vocalist Theresa Jarvis, guitarist George Edwards, bassist Alex Crosby, and drummer Robert Mason -- met in college while each member played in different bands. They got together in 2014 and quickly gained a reputation for their formidable live shows. Yonaka combine heavy riffs, melodic hooks, and on-stage punk furor like the wild spawn of Yeah Yeah Yeahs and Royal Blood.
Yonaka got together in 2014 and quickly gained a reputation for their formidable live shows. They performed on the BBC Introducing stage at Radio 1's Big Weekend 2016 and released their debut EP HEAVY the following year. 2018 saw the group release two further EPs, Teach Me to Fight and Creature. The title track from Creature reached the top spot of the Kerrang! Rock Chart in December 2018. In October 2018, they played a 4-track session at the iconic BBC Maida Vale studios, during which they presented a live mashup of Jumpsuit and Paparazzi. "Teach Me to Fight" was used as the official theme song for the WWE pay-per-view event Fastlane in March 2019. In May 2019, Yonaka signed with American label Fueled By Ramen ahead of the release of their debut album Don't Wait 'till Tomorrow on 31 May. The album reached 38 on the UK Albums Chart and 10 on the UK Vinyl Albums Chart. The band were also nominated for 'Best British Newcomer' at the 2019 Kerrang! Awards.
