Year of the Fall is a synthwave/retrowave band that blends nostalgia for the music and movies of the 1980s with the electronic melancholy of modern life.
 
YOTF features German musician Philipp Kappestein and American writer/vocalist Dan Vaccaro. The two met while living in a volunteer community in Boston, Massachusetts, and within days began making music together. They spent their 9-5 working in the program’s homeless shelter, and in the evenings recorded music on an old computer, originally using a headset microphone to capture vocals. Their first album came under the band name For Tomorrow, and featured acoustic folk-pop music inspired by the likes of Ben Harper, Jack Johnson, Counting Crows, Pearl Jam, and others.

The group’s second album, Love on a Dying Planet, is an eight-song cycle – released one track at a time – that tells the story of star-crossed lovers who discover passion and peril at the end of the world. The band released the first single from the record in May 2022. Fans can follow along with each new segment of the story (and find its corresponding song) at the YOTF’s website (https://www.yearofthefall.com/love-on-a-dying-planet-2022).
