Young Culture announced as support for State Champs’ Frozen Fest

By November 15, 2019No Comments

Pop rock band Young Culture is ready to close out 2019 in a big way, with the announcement that they will be performing at State ChampsFrozen Fest. The show, also featuring Grayscale, comes to Clifton Park’s Upstate Concert Hall on December 21st. Tickets go on sale this Friday, November 5th at 12pm ET.

Young Culture recently kicked off their fall tour with Homesafe, Kayak Jones, and Keep Flying. There’s still a month of shows – for a full list of remaining dates, please see below or visit: www.facebook.com/youngcultureNY.

Earlier this year, Young Culture celebrated an incredibly successful first week following the release of their new EP, (This Is) Heaven, available now via Equal Vision Records. (This Is) Heaven, the band’s label debut, secured the #22 spot on the New Artist chart, as well as #53 Indie. The EP has been heralded by Billboard, New Noise Magazine, Indie Mixtape, idobi Radio, and more. Fans can stream (This Is) Heaven via Spotify and Apple Music, or purchase it online at youngculture.merchnow.com.

It’s not often that a rock or punk band will make a hip-hop style mixtape just to clear their creative cobwebs. But that’s exactly what Albany-based four-piece Young Culture did. Formed by school friends Alex Magnan (vocals) and Gabe Pietrafesa (guitar), who have been playing together for a number of years, Young Culture put out their debut mini-album, You, in the summer of 2016. It was followed up with a five-track EP called Blue. The former had a song, “Bedroom Floor” that featured Derek DiScanio from State Champs – a fellow Albany band – on backing vocals. The latter was co-produced by him and Seth Henderson, who’s worked with the likes of Real Friends, Knuckle Puck and Sleep On It.

Young Culture released (This Is) Heaven on January 18th, 2019 via Equal Vision Records. To purchase, please visit: youngculture.merchnow.com.
