Young The Giant
About
Young the Giant's sound is as uniquely diverse and eclectic as its five members. Sameer Gadhia, Payam Doostzadeh, Jacob Tilley, Francois Comtois and Eric Cannata hail from, surprisingly, Newport Beach, California. An assembly of international names and assorted backgrounds that combine to produce a refreshing brand of sun soaked Indie rock. With lush experimental compositions complimented by subtle yet infectious pop hooks and unique, soothing vocals, it is a sound all their own.
Predominantly comprised of teenagers, the five
piece delivers mature arrangements far beyond their years. As high school
students they conquered the local Orange County music scene winning awards and
praise, quickly developing momentum that was soon challenged by their new
college lives. At 5 different schools, divided by hundreds of miles of the
California coast, the band persisted, continuing to play shows and write new
music for their EP Shake My Hand.
