Sitting triumphantly at the top spot on the Take 40 singles chart is Sydney's very own Youth Group with their lo-fi, yet kind of anthemic ballad, 'Forever Young'. The song has become a runaway hit for the band after it's inclusion on the soundtrack for the latest series of the OC.
Despite 'Forever Young' being the band's first hit, the four-piece have actually been making music since 1998. Now on the back of their success the band are about to launch themselves on a low-key Australian tour before they head off to America to perform at the prestigious Coachella Festival!
The dates are:
Fri 12 May- The Troubadour Brisbane
Sat 20 May- Flinders Uni Tavern Adelaide
Sun 21 May- Rosemount Hotel Perth
Fri 26 May- @ Newtown Sydney
Sat 27 May- Northcote Social Club Melbourne
