Rachael Yamagata collects fans as she makes her... →
by Jeffrey Lee Pucket The Courier-Journal December 15, 2011
Rachael Yamagata sounds awful. Her voice is hoarse, she’s sniffling, and it feels like a coughing fit could break out any second. This is the glamorous life of a touring musician: stuck in North Carolina, hundreds of miles from home, with a nasty cold and seven shows in the next eight nights.
“I think this tour caught up with me,” she...

Rachael fansite "The Reason Why" is back!
Denise who runs The Reason Why - the one and only Rachael Yamagata fansite in existence (at least that I know of) - was kind enough to contact me a while ago and alert me to the fact that she has brought this site back after being on hiatus for a while. Life has been kicking my ass lately so I’m just now getting around to posting about it, and I sincerely apologize.

Hear Rachael Yamagata’s New Album, ‘Chesapeake’ “Admittedly I was not amped at the prospect of listening to Chesapeake at 7am this morning, the time that I usually set aside for music writing. Rachael’s past releases, Happenstance and Elephants… Teeth Sinking Into Heart, are not 7am records. They’re 11pm records after a hard day and a couple of vodka tonics. But Chesapeake is not really like...
