Baby Yaga is Charleston’s newest pop act, but these guys are not here to blend in. The trio — fronted by Presley Randall with Real South Records’ DJ Edwards (drums) and Whitehall’s Avery Greeson (bass) holding down the rhythm section — is inspired by punk and ’90s grunge, and, well, “euphoria.” We caught up with the crew recently to learn a little more about Baby Yaga for this week’s Beat Juice. Hope you’re thirsty.
