I recently stumbled upon this gem and I am thoroughly hooked. Young the giant are an indie rock band from Irvine, California and the hold true to their genre. Each song is a well thought out catchy indie track. Songs like my body and I got make you want to jump out your seat and pounce around like a teenage at a killers concert while cough syrup and islands making want to throw your lighter in the air and sing along at the top of your lungs. The band was formed in 2004 and was originally known as the Jakes. After several line-up changes they settled on the final line-up of Sameer Gadhia, Jacob Tilley, Eric Cannata, Payam Doostzadeh, Francois Comtois in 2008. In 2009 they won an online contest and open for Kings if Leon at he House of blues in Chicago. In 2010 they released their debut self-titled album with producer Joe Chicarelli. Their album is a must have for indie or alternative fans and in my opinion is only the tip of the iceberg for this Californian 5-piece.
