History

Early Years (2006–2009)

The band was founded by school friends guitarist Paul Travers and bassist Andrew McShane in Greenock, near Glasgow. They recruited vocalist Michael Rice and drummer David Beaton who introduced them to guitarist Lewis Millen.[1]

Yashin quickly built up a large national following and released two EPs in 2008 Pay to Play and Miles Away But Getting Closer. Original vocalist Michael Rice announced his decision to leave the band in October 2008.

Enter Harry and Kevin (2009–2010)

After a brief audition process the band chose to replace Michael with not one but two vocalists. American born Harry Radford and Glaswegian Kevin Miles. The new line up embarked on a nine date UK tour in April 2009 supporting Madina Lake and The Audition, they continued to tour for most of the year in the UK and Europe before commencing recording their debut album Put Your Hands Where I Can See Them, with Romesh Dodangoda at Long Wave Studios in November 2009. The band played their biggest headline show to date by selling out The Garage in their hometown of Glasgow.
