Youth Group

_20 years on from the recording of their number 1 single ‘Forever Young’, acclaimed Australian band Youth Group announce a national run of headline shows this March.  Following the 2024 release of their single “Siberia’, the band’s first release in 5 years, Youth Group are set to release their 2nd single ‘The Joke’ from their highly anticipated new album – due later in 2025._  
**_Siberia_** _– and its b-side **When It Was** - hints at a new direction for Youth Group. It bridges a dance-rock feel, with the plaintive melodic style the band are known for. It was originally written by Toby and NYC-based musician and DJ MING - the two met while doing a house swap on Craig’s List! Its combination of a live band sound, with some drum and synth programming, provides the backdrop for an icy tale of romantic woe. The new single_ **The Joke** _combines a jangly, driving sound with lyrics that are a snapshot of life in suburban Sydney: a classic Youth Group combo._  
_The 7-inch of **Siberia/When It Was** will be available at the merch desk at these show._  
_2025 will also mark the 20th anniversary of their recording of **Forever Young**, which went on to become Australia’s first number 1 single on the ARIA Digital Singles Chart._  
_Tickets on sale Tuesday 21st January 10amAEDT_
