Not many stories begin in Stoke on Trent, England, most that do don’t often have happy endings. An industrialised town with no industry, a motorway bypass for people driving somewhere, anywhere that isn’t Stoke on Trent. Earn your money in the warehouse, spend it in the pub. Go to work when it’s dark and get home when it’s darker.
That was their beginning but they’re after a different ending. All the Young, are a 4 piece guitar driven band from England, who met as teenagers through a mutual love of music and daydreaming, and decided to form a band as an escape from the repetitiveness of small town life. Deciding to join an industry based on column inches and daytime radio play is a risky move for any group of lads holding guitars from a small town, but what’s life without a few risks?
(ALL THE YOUNG) have spent the last couple of years taking it upon themselves to bring great guitar tunes back into the UK music consciousness. They have toured with the likes of Kaiser Chiefs and The Wombats and have truly made fans out of their mobs.
(ALL THE YOUNG) are lads playing working class rock n roll music so it makes perfect sense that they should hook up with KING CANNONS for their first Australian tour.
“I loved it because it reminded me of the early Smiths days.” – MORRISEYon All The Young’s gig at the Proud Galleries
“Those present will be able to say they were there when the new guitar revolution kicked off.” – NME

Their debut album “Welcome Home” Produced by GGGarth Richardson (Red Hot Chili Peppers, Biffy Clyro) has set about righting the guitar music wrongs and it is time for them to share the love with their antipodean cousins.
All The Young firmly believe in the art of playing live. Music began in a room infront of a live audience, and it will end there. They play to anyone and everyone that wants them and give maximum in return. They hope you can join them sometime, all are welcome at this show.
They are the noise in your head, they are All The Young.
“The Horizon and Welcome Home are soaring, chorus-bolstered rock songs that speak of small-town suffocation and escape.” – Q
“All The Young bring a touch of second album Clash and mid-period Manics to their rousing, anthemic songs” – SUNDAY TIMES CULTURE
ALL THE YOUNG – DEBUT ALBUM – WELCOME HOME
OUT – AUGUST 31ST
