Introducing: Young Guns


I was introduced to this band by my best friend Jarret. He said he discovered this band while on Amazon trying to find music and he clicked on them because he was intrigued by the cover art of their album. Today I sat down and decided to give them a listen and man was I impressed.

I love their music, they are a flashback to the golden era of rock'n'roll and really remind me of bands such as the Rolling Stones and the Beatles. They are a UK rock'n'roll band based in London who released their ep "Mirrors" in 2009 which featured fan favorites like Daughters of the Sea and Weight of the World. In July of 2010 the band released their second album under their own label, Live Forever, it debuted on the UK album chart at no. 43 and peaked at no. 3 on both the UK rock and indie charts. This album featured songs like Sons of Apathy, Winters Kiss, Stitches and Weight of the World from their EP. In 2012 they released their second studio album entitled Bones with singles such as Bones and Dearly Departed(which quickly became one of my favorites).
