Yawning Man was born in the middle �80s and it�s currently formed by Alfredo Hernandez - drums (ex-Kyuss, ex-Queens of the Stone Age); Mario Lalli - bass (Fatso Jetson, Orquesta del Desierto, Across the River) and Gary Arce - guitars (The Sort of Quartet, Oddio Gasser).

Rock Formations includes ten new tracks recently recorded by Yawning Man. Yawning Man's unique musical style takes on the highly acclaimed Brant Bjork`s Jalamanta album as an influence to their new songs. Or we could say that Jalamanta was inspired by Yawning Man years earlier. Needless to say Gary Arce and Mario Lalli recorded additional guitars on Jalamanta and Mario sings on one of the tracks. This collaboration was proof of respect and admiration that Brant Bjork feels for Yawning Man. Yawning Man�s music sounds like a melancholic mix of acoustic space rock with elements of surf music, as well as middle eastern guitar style. Yawning Man was responsible for influencing music in the desert and creating a sound which today is still trying to be duplicated.
