Artist History YETI formed in August of '98 as a merger of two bands. The first group, already named Yeti, consisted of Tommy Atkins on bass, Jon Teague on drums, Eric Harris on guitar, as well as another guitarist. The second, Est Mort, was a loosly organized group occasionally getting together on weekends with Atkins, Teague, and Doug Ferguson on keyboards. When the original Yeti lost it's lead guitarist, Ferguson was asked to come in for trial practice. After countless live shows, the studio Lp “Things to Come…” and several live Cds, Ferguson left this earth on February, 23, 2002. Faced with a serious creative and moral dilemma Atkins, Harris, and Teague opted to continue as a trio, with Atkins and Teague taking over keyboard responsibilities. YETI continues to offer a heavier music combining the darker elements of jazz and rock forms.
