MTV’s been doing a really great job of introducing new artists through their PUSH Artist of the Week. I’ve listened to Young the Giant a few times but didn’t really put much thought into listening to the whole album. I loved “I Got” and found it when putting together a summer playlist. Now, I’m regretting my poor decision to not find more about this band.
The lead singer is pretty swoonworthy in this live session of “Cough Syrup,” and this version in general is just wonderful to listen to:
It’s seriously worth your time to go to their YouTube page and watch their open sessions. ”God Made Man” is absolutely stunning as is “Apartment.”
I wish I could get all the songs in these live open sessions. The songs just aren’t the same after being produced. Regardless, take a listen to Young the Giant below! They should immediately be added to your summer playlists.
