If By Yes is the avant-pop supergroup helmed by LA based Petra Haden (that dog, Decemberists) and NYC’s Yuka Honda (Cibo Matto, Sean Lennon) also featuring Hirotaka Shimizu and Yuko Araki of Cornelius. The collaboration began way back in 2002, when the Petra and Yuka started working on some material via email, but the distance separating the two didn’t allow them to keep a quick creative pace. Fast forward almost ten years, and If By Yes finally managed to release their debut album "Salt On Sea Glass" on Sean Lennon’s Chimera label, which was greeted by good press in places like the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, LA Times etc. If By Yes’ "Eliza" (Petra’s duet with David Byrne) will be in the film "This Must Be The Place," starring Sean Penn, which comes out later this year.
