Young Guns, a British rock band originating from Buckinghamshire and London, has made a significant mark in the alternative rock scene since their formation in 2008. The group initially caught the attention of both fans and critics with their debut EP "Mirrors" in 2009, setting the stage for a decade of emotive lyrics, powerful guitar riffs, and dynamic performances. The band consists of Gustav Wood (lead vocals), John Taylor (guitar), Fraser Taylor (guitar), Simon Mitchell (bass), and Ben Jolliffe (drums), until the latter's departure in 2016.
Their journey through the rock stratosphere saw the release of impactful albums such as "All Our Kings Are Dead" in 2010, which showcased their capacity for anthemic tracks and solidified their presence in the UK rock scene. This was followed by "Bones" in 2012, an album that contained their most successful single, "Bones," which peaked at number one on the Billboard Active Rock charts. The subsequent albums "Ones and Zeros" (2015) and "Echoes" (2016) further demonstrated the band's evolution in sound, experimenting with electronic elements while staying true to their rock roots. Despite the changes in the music industry and the challenges of keeping a rock band afloat in the digital age, Young Guns have remained tenaciously relevant, celebrated for their energetic live performances, deeply personal lyrics, and unwavering commitment to their craft.
