Yeti

(1) Yeti is a British rock band fronted by bass player John Hassall, formerly of The Libertines. The group's highest accomplishments include opening for Oasis.

Hassall met bassist Brendan Kersey, lead guitarist Andy Deian Jung, and guitarist Harmony Williams through mutual friends. The line-up was completed after drummer Graham Blacow responded to a classified ad.

Hassall writes most of Yeti's songs, but Williams has also penned several, and sings lead on his own songs. The band plays acoustic rock with a bluesy undertone and strong harmonies. Influences include The La's, Bob Dylan and The Beatles. Their debut single "Never Lose Your Sense of Wonder" was released in March 2005 and reached number 36 in the British charts. (wikipedia.org)

According to their website, the band is currently working on "12 brand new songs at a secret location".

(2) Yeti is also the name of an ambient side project by Krister Linders.

Currently one full length album, called 'Holtkötter', 1 EP and 3 singles have being released by Krister under the name Yeti.

(3)YETI formed in August of '98 as a merger of two bands. The first group, already named Yeti, consisted of Tommy Atkins on bass, Jon Teague on drums, Eric Harris on guitar, as well as another guitarist. The second, Est Mort, was a loosly organized group occasionally getting together on weekends with Atkins, Teague, and Doug Ferguson on keyboards. When the original Yeti lost it's lead guitarist, Ferguson was asked to come in for trial practice.

After countless live shows, the studio LP "Things to Come" and several live Cds, Ferguson left this earth on February, 23, 2002. Faced with a serious creative and moral dilemma Atkins, Harris, and Teague opted to continue as a trio, with Atkins and Teague taking over keyboard responsibilities. YETI continues to offer a heavier music combining the darker elements of jazz and rock forms

(4) Yeti is also an American black/death metal band based out of Florida consisting of Al Nunn on guitar, Mike Curry on guitar, Eric Avant on keys and vocals, Jonathon Montgomery on bass, and Scott Nunn on the drums. They have released one full-length (Niflheim), an EP (Yeti) and a live DVD. They have changed their name to Among The Dead
