Clap Your Hands Say Yeah (often abbreviated CYHSY) is the musical project of American indie rock musician Alec Ounsworth. Founded in 2004, the group is based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and Brooklyn, New York. The band's lineup has evolved over the years but originally included drummer Sean Greenhalgh, keyboardist/guitarist Robbie Guertin, and brothers Lee (guitar/vocals) and Tyler (bass) Sargent. Their self-released debut album, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, was a breakout success in 2005.
With an indie rock sound that blends catchy melodies with Ounsworth's distinctive vocals, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah quickly gained a devoted following. Their music has been praised for its unique songwriting style and experimental approach to indie rock.
Over the years, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah has continued to release albums and tour extensively. Despite changes in their lineup, they have maintained their signature sound and loyal fanbase. With each new release, they continue to push boundaries and explore new musical territories.

Indie rock songwriter Alec Ounsworth returns with a new album as Clap Your Hands Say Yeah. Dubbed The Tourist, it will serve as his fifth full-length under the moniker and the follow-up to 2014’s Only Run. The Tourist was recorded over the course of a week at Dr. Dog’s studio in Philadelphia. Its 10 tracks were engineered by Nick Krill of The Spinto Band and mixed by Dave Fridmann, who assisted on two of CYHSY’s previous LPs. Musically, the album is said to be a nod to Ounsworth’s inspirations, such as Tom Waits, Nick Cave, and Paul Simon, and features keyboard-laden cuts alongside more folk-based numbers.
