Yee Loi
The future of punk is in the hands of two teenage English girls – Rose and Matilda. Along with their little brother Don Don on bass, they form Yee Loi (which means “two girls” in Cantonese) making them the most exciting three piece band in punk today. Between school and homework, the band stumbled upon their dad’s record collection and discovered a whole new world they never knew existed. Hearing The Stray Cats, Johnny Thunders, and their favourites, The Ramones, changed everything. From that moment on, they dropped their pens and picked up guitars and drumsticks.
Matilda took on the dual role of drummer and vocalist, while Rose, obsessed with rockabilly, developed a guitar style far beyond her years. This is just the beginning of Yee Loi’s story, as these Merseyside teenagers set out to rip up the rulebook of Britain’s punk scene.
They are signed to Modern Sky UK.

Yee Loi announcement debut album with exclusive party at Yungblud’s Denmark Street store.
Liverpool punk trio Yee Loi announced their forthcoming debut album, Flicks, licks, party tricks, with a breathless, high-octane set down in the basement at Yungblud’s Denmark Street store.
Packed to the rafters, the Soho venue in London’s historic musical centre saw Yee Loi – teenage siblings Rose (guitar, backing vocals), Matilda (drums, vocals), Don Don (bass) – deliver a masterclass in raw, unfiltered UK punk.
Journalists were treated to some of the band’s breakout tracks like ‘Why Ask Why’ and ‘Mystery Train’, as well as some unheard songs from the new album ‘Miraclist’ and ‘Picture Perfect’. The night proved that although their spirit and inspiration lies with classic punk history, Yee Loi and their energy belong to the present.
