Young the Giant is an American rock band from Irvine, California known for their dynamic live performances and a sound that blends soaring vocals, intricate instrumentation, and introspective lyricism. The band is composed of Sameer Gadhia (lead vocals, Jacob Tilley (guitar), Eric Cannata (guitar), Payam Doostzadeh (bass), and Fran?ois Comtois (drums). Since their breakout in 2010 with the platinum-certified singles "My Body" and "Cough Syrup," Young the Giant have become one of alternative rock's defining voices, blending anthemic energy with deeply personal storytelling.
