The Best Indie Songs of 2014 - Young Rising Sons

Young Rising Sons High (Feb’14) is positively gleeeful. Yeah that’s right, with an extra E. No surprises given the name. Christ it starts with a chirpy whistle of the hook. An earnestly sang verse to set up the jump and bounce, all together now, chorus. The whole song feels like a rise.

 

 

If you’ve had enough of uplifting, chippy, indie pop songs with “heys”, handclaps and big drum, don’t go near this one. But if you want to find yourself smiling, brim-full of love for the world, without chemical assistance, perish the thought,  the eagle lands at the one minute mark.

“Just let it go, enjoy the ri-ii-de”

 

 

Young Rising Sons come bouncing out of Red Bank, New Jersey. They have been elevating the masses since 2010. High is off their first self-titled EP (July’14).The band have only dropped two E.P.’s so far.

Young Rising Sons have gone on jaunts with The Griswolds, Kongos, The 1975 and Weezer inflto name but a few.

Young Rising Sons get their indefatigable lust for life from the likes of The Temptations, The Boss, The Beatles, Green Day, Tom Petty and Rancid.

Heart fit for bursting? Switch on and feel the love with King of the World, Red and Gold and Turnin’.

 

 

For the comedown Dashboard Confessional and Hands Down (2003) a song about the best date of his life.
