Young the Giant
Young the Giant unassumingly morphed from a Southern California band of teenage friends into a platinum-certified arena headliner with an alternative sound equally entrenched in integrity and infectiousness. Released on October 26, 2010, the band’s 2010 self-titled full-length debut, Young the Giant, has become a seminal alternative rock album, earning Gold certification from the RIAA and spawning two signature Platinum singles: “My Body” and “Cough Syrup.” Fronted by Sameer Gadhia – who the New York Times calls, “one of the great contemporary rock voices” – the band have released a string of critically acclaimed albums over the past decade, including Mind over Matter [2014], Home of the Strange [2016], and most recently Mirror Master [2018] including the hit song “Superposition”, which peaked at #1 on the Alternative Radio Charts. Along the way, they also headlined sold-out shows at hallowed venues such as The Forum, Radio City Music Hall, The Greek Theatre, The Aragon Ballroom, and Red Rocks Amphitheatre, to name a few in addition to making main stage appearances at Bonnaroo, Austin City Limits, Lollapalooza, Outside Lands, Governors Ball, and many more. With over 1.5 billion streams and widespread acclaim, their impact only continues to grow with each subsequent release as they never stop evolving.
