MAN ON MARS
Young Decades are a four-piece indie group from the Midlands
Right from their very first shows of 2021 Young Decades are quickly earning themselves a reputation for high octane shows in their Leicester stomping grounds. This is set to continue in 2022 with an appearance at the maiden SIGNALS festival in Derbyshire alongside The Charlatans and The Cribs and main support for fellow Leicester born heroes Demons of Ruby Mae at the cities iconic Y Theatre.
Their first release of the year ‘Man on Mars’ delivers something special as they experiment further with new sounds including a striking string quartet intro and a powerful performance by drummer Lee Cameron. The 9th release from the Leicester four-piece since their formation in 2020, delivers an interstellar slice of fiction. Casting forward to the near future, a manned mission to mars is viewed from earth at first with hope and then with envy.
In just over a year the band have passed the 350k stream mark from a standing start and gained support from BBC R1, Amazing Radio UK & US and BT Sport.
The record was mixed by the incredible Leicester-born Tom Longworth (Oscar Lang, Vistas, Bloxx, Spector) and mastered by engineer Kevin Tuffy (Alfie Templeman, Chaka Kahn, JC Stewart).
Young Decades are Lee Cameron (drums), Liam Downey (Drums), Scott Harvey (Guitar) and James Tidd (Vocals).
