Indie band Youth Sounds release new song and Kickstarter

New Orleans based, indie band Youth Sounds is set to record their new single off their 3rd EP, Favors.

The new single "Burn Out" will be released in both English and Spanish ('Sin Ti') and both versions are available on iTunes.

In order to finish the remainder of the album, the group needs the help of their dedicated fans. The band has launched a Kickstarter campaign to raise the funds for their new album, Favors and is asking their fans to be a part of it.


The first single off the album, "Burn Out" was recorded at Festival Recording Studios (Lil Wayne, Juvenile, Michelle Williams) just outside of New Orleans. Rick Naiser engineered and produced the single, along with Youth Sounds' Federico Mejia as co-producer. The band made the decision to record a Spanish version of the song, "Sin Ti" to show their heritage.

Youth Sounds is a five-piece band made up of the Mejia siblings (Federico- bass, Erika- vocals, and Nicolas- drums), Federico's wife (Taryn Mejia- keyboard) and a close friend (Adrian Frye- guitar). The ambient, dream pop, indie sound comes from an innovative group that understands who they are and what they have to offer. Youth Sounds has been featured as an iHeartRadio "Artist to Watch" as well as been listed by Music Connection Magazine, as one of the "Hot 100 Unsigned Bands."

Kickstarter is an online pledge system that funds creative projects. The Kickstarter campaign that will raise money for the band's new album, Favors has already been initiated online. Youth Sounds offers a unique array of different prizes such as a download of the album before its release, personalized song written and recorded with the fan's name in the lyrics, guest spot as executive producer of the album, a party and private concert with Youth Sounds.


With the success of their August 2010 release of The Bit Parts and the February 2011 release of Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow, Youth Sounds has been welcomed into the indie community with overwhelmingly positive reviews.
