YACOVELLI  |  Neo-Grunge & Punk Band NYC

YACOVELLI is a "Nu York" Neo-Grunge, Punk & Alternative band fronted by Alex Yacovelli (Songwriter & Producer), former member of Rich N Pretty and Not Your Queen’s English. No stranger to the suburban DIY garage studio, YACOVELLI’s music encapsulates a raw, indie rock drive and energy.
 
A longtime resident of Hell’s Kitchen NYC, Alex brings years of urban experience and flair to the project. He’s been a mainstay of the New York underground scene since the late 2000s, when he played with Weezer at their Madison Square Garden debut. Yacovelli's songwriting ranked for Honorable Mention in the John Lennon Songwriting Competition (Pop category) alongside Meghan Trainor. While studying voice at NYU, his Ultraviolet Live performance was praised by host and "original influencer" Perez Hilton.
 
Live gigs have included: Mercury Lounge, Rockwood Music Hall, Bitter End, Arlene’s Grocery, and 107.1 The Peak’s Pleasantville Music Festival.
