The Yagas is an alt-rock band. It was formed in 2023 by actor Vera Farmiga and her husband, Renn Hawkey. The band also includes Jason Bowman, Mark Visconti, and Mike Davis.
The band’s name is inspired by the Slavic folklore figure Baba Yaga. She is known for her magical abilities. She is also associated with the spirit world. The band’s lyrics explore dark and emotional themes. The band’s musical style mixes alt-rock, industrial, and metal. This combination prompts comparisons to The Cure, A Perfect Circle, and Type O Negative.
In October 2024, Vera Farmiga debuted as a singer for The Yagas. She is best known as the co-star of The Conjuring horror franchise. Their debut single is called ‘The Crying Room’.
In February 2025, the band released a second single, ‘She’s Walking Down,’ which Farmiga wrote as a way to alleviate nightmares about child trafficking.
The band’s debut album, Midnight Minuet, which includes their previous singles, was released on April 25, 2025.
