Words: Ellie Ward
In anticipation of their forthcoming debut album, London-via-Limerick-based whenyoung drop new single, ‘Future’.
The chiming rocker - which tells the story of a close friend who sadly took their own life, while also striving to find a message of hope in the darkness - precedes ‘Reasons To Dream’, which is released through Virgin EMI on May 24.
“‘Reasons To Dream’ is a presentation of our collective experiences of life since we have moved to London," say the band. “We've trundled through many jobs, flats, neighbourhoods and rehearsal rooms learning, practising, maturing and cultivating whatever it is we do along the way. We've gone from knowing nobody to making close friends, from finding it lonely to finding it welcoming.”
'Reasons to Dream' tracklist:
