Sitting in The World Famous in downtown Athens on my lunch break (that’s a lot of prepositions), talking to Yip Deceiver about their current tour and all the stuff you talk about during interviews, I hold back from mentioning all of the times I’ve seen and recognized them around town (hi, I’m a creep).
Though they’re a national touring band, they’re locals here, so I get to chat with them on and about our mutual turf in addition to their life outside of our hometown bubble.
Check out my interview with Yip Deceiver below, and be sure to catch them on their current tour, including dates at SXSW! And be sure to give them some ear-love, since they just released two new remixes!

Emily is an over-enthusiastic lover of music, books, movies, fashion, and culture in general. Her love of music spans across all genres (what is a genre anymore? she waxes poetic to herself), though she was nursed on true punk and will never understand “redneck country” music – tractors are not and cannot be sexy. Emily currently lives in Brooklyn, NY and considers herself to be a great wit, though she is still waiting on validation from a credible source.
