The Young Hearts go glass-half-full

Posted in Bands on November 16, 2024

The Young Hearts have a new single that premiered this week, "Hell or High Water," an optimistic reflection of melodic punk.

“‘Hell or High Water’ is a reminder to myself to hold onto that positive, ‘glass-half-full’ kind of energy, whatever the weather.  As everyone knows, life has a habit of testing us, and pushing our outlook to the limit, so it’s not always easy to find the light through the darkness. This year has probably been the most significant for me so far in many ways, so it’s more important now than ever to find those silver linings among all life’s distractions and be the best version of myself,” the band says of the new song.

Based in Kent, UK, the band pull from modern punk and timeless blue collar rock. They released their second album, Somewhere Through The Night in 2023 (Year of The Rat Records).
