Covet is the baby and brainchild of guitarist and songwriter/composer Yvette Young,conceived as a sort-of-rebellion against and simultaneously an extension of her classicalroots. The band was founded in the Bay Area, California, with the intention of fusing lushpost-rock soundscapes with the more intricate elements of progressive music, with melody and emotion at the forefront, evolving with each release. The name came from Yvettes love for the band Basement, as well as a fondness for the meaning of the word: to want something really badly, which is what the whole creative process feels like to her: a sort of yearning.
