Burgeoning out
of Bergen, Young Dreams is a fresh collective casing enough
members for me to stop counting, and when a group’s that
large, I know I’m set for a good time. The orchestral
hodgepodge crafts gorgeous pop that bursts with youth, and
from handclaps to harmonies, they’ve got me well content
with all the things I love. Young Dreams rolled in earlier
this year with a self-titled track that’s perfectly
effortless in sounding like the best of your summer
daydreams. Young Dreams sets up with a gentle guitar riff
that vanguards a fleeting, featherlight track that’ll just
rob you of your breath down to the harmonized chorus
proclaiming the motto of lost youth - "We’ll live forever."
Plenty of harmonies against a light, summery soundtrack have
me looking to this group as - and I know this’ll sound odd -
a lo-fi, modern, Norwegian Beach Boys. Though tracks from
this group’s songbook are sinfully sparse, the release of
two singles within their first year of formation show that
the troupe are well on their way to quelling our needs soon
enough.
