Skyline Stage

Over the past fifteen years, the multi-platinum Southern California band has flourished through distinct sonic eras, progressively solidifying itself as one of the most consistent and influential rock bands of the 21st century. On their sixth full-length album and Fearless Records debut, Victory Garden, Young the Giant reconnects with the core experience of 100% band collaboration, writing and recording together as a unit in one room. Written largely during writing retreats in Idyllwild and Joshua Tree and produced by Brendan O’Brien (Springsteen, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden) at Henson Studios in Hollywood, Victory Garden is a cohesive album experience that both inspires and enthralls. Lyrically, the album is an ode to radical empathy, revealing the band’s songwriting instincts at their most immediate. Musically, Victory Garden showcases the seasoned artist’s collective performances at their intuitive height.  The result is a prolific record that beckons a new era of creative fertility for the band and presents Young the Giant as confident, refined, and fully inhabiting its voice.
