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 classical roots. The band was founded in the Bay Area, California, with the intention of fusing lush post-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 Yvette’s  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.
