Festi-Ville 2019: Young the Giant

Marauder Music Productions and Speed of Sound Productions are proud to present Festi-ville 2019 featuring platinum recording alternative rock band YOUNG THE GIANT!

Young the Giant first broke through with their 2010 self-titled debut album, which featured the RIAA-gold certified hits, "My Body" and "Cough Syrup." This was followed by the release of 2014’s Mind Over Matter, which was both a commercial and critical success and prompted The New York Times to call lead singer Sameer Gadhia “one of the great contemporary rock voices.” Since then, the band has toured the world, with their most recent route featuring sold out performances at Radio City Music Hall, The Greek Theatre, and Aragon Ballroom. They have become a festival mainstay at high profile outings such as Bonnaroo, Austin City Limits, Lollapalooza, Outside Lands, and Governor's Ball among others. Over the course of their career, Young The Giant has charted 5 singles on the Billboard Alternative Top 10.

Young the Giant’s fourth studio album Mirror Master is out now! In the band’s words:

"Look in the mirror. What do you see? A familiar figure; a stranger; a monster? What we forget to realize is that the image that reflects is just an illusion. Like the world, we are made up of fictions of things people tell us. How we should dress, what we should believe in, what type of stock to invest in, how we should vote. What is our free will, if we trudge across tracks already traveled? If there is nothing else we control; nothing else new, we are at least in control of ourselves; can make our paths novel and undefined; shatter categories, stereotypes, and roles. Do what we want to do, think freely and not how others tell us to—live beneath the surface of things. Now look at the mirror again. What do you see? Only you are the master of what comes next.”

This year's Festi-ville 2019 is a benefit event for the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. Festi-ville will feature multiple stages across campus and will be an all day event. More artists to be announced soon!
