Young the Giant just released “Simplify,” its first new song since 2016. It’s available for download and streaming right now via Elektra Records.
“Everything in modern life is complicated,” explains lead singer Sameer Gadhia. “Each decision divides into possible alternatives, reflections multiplying within themselves endlessly, like a room of a thousand mirrors. We construct images of how life should be lived: how to act, dress, tweet, and vote, and often times it is easy to lose your true self to the images we create for all to see. But love is simple, and to love someone is to love all of humanity. It is the closest thing to truth, and even though love can be compromising, painful, and exhausting, we can only see our truest selves in the eyes of another. This is the essence of ‘Simplify.’”
Simply put, you can see Young the Giant at Riot Fest 2018 in Chicago’s Douglas Park. Tickets are on sale now.
