Young Statues
American emo band
Young Statues is an American emo band from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
History
Young Statues formed in the winter of 2010 after a series of songs that were initially never intended to be released were recorded between friends. Inspired by the response Carmen Cirignano recruited longtime friends and musicians from the Philadelphia music scene, Tom Ryan and Daniel Bogan to record and release what would become Young Statues self-titled debut album in 2011. The following year they would go on to follow up their self-titled album with a four-track EP titled "Covers" which consisting of a collection of cover songs of artists such as Billy Bragg, The Magnetic Fields, New Order and Ryan Adams.
