Young The Giant

This past Saturday night, I had the pleasure of seeing Young The Giant live at the Corona Theater in Montreal. It was absolutely amazing! Walk the Moon opened for them, I had never heard of them before but 30 seconds into their first song I was hooked, seriously talented band! Walk the Moon reminded me a lot of the group MGMT, but also had this rock folkness to them that I instantly digged!

About an hour later, Young The Giant took the stage and Sameer, the lead singer announced that Francois (their drummer) was in fact from Montreal! So naturally the crowd went wild, and the show started off on a high! They played songs from their debut album, but also a lot of new stuff, which was exciting because it must mean there's a new album in the works! The band announced, although not sure if they were allowed to, that they will be playing at this year's Osheaga festival in August, very exciting! The show ended with Walk The Moon joining them on stage to perform their number one hit "My Body", it was incredible! I managed to take a video of it, but I’ll admit it was insanely hard not to join in with the audience and jump up and down! All in all, it was a fantastic show! Can't wait to see them again!

Check out some pictures I took and the video of "My Body", you can literally feel the crowd energy! Enjoy!
