Young Rising Sons is a three-piece rock band, hailing from Red Bank, New Jersey.
They have just released their much-anticipated new single Whiskey, which has become an immediate hit with their devoted fan base.
This number is rich with multi-layered textures and complex arrangements.
The production style is modern, clean, and contemporary, with innovative electronic sounds that evoke traditional EDM music influences, spinning it all with a modern edge.
Whiskey is an interesting blend of different genres, with clean pop vocals, rock riffs, and a diverse electronic soundscape. The best part of this dynamic and engaging new offering from Young Rising Sons is the strong narrative element, evoking poignant and poetic images with the motif of whiskey and water.
The lead vocals are expressive and evocative, and they tell the story with clarity and directness. The guitars give a steely edge to the inspirational style of the song, providing color, diversity, and depth.
Along with the vivid and striking electronic elements, Whiskey is full of surprises, it’s an ambient and thoroughly enjoyable track up and coming band.
Listen to Whiskey and keep updated with the Young Rising Sons.

At first glance, Young Rising Sons may seem to be just another Jersey band, raised on Bruce in the ‘Land of Hope and Dreams’. Perhaps, at some point, that’s exactly what they were, but Young Rising Sons have grown into a family, with its foundation rooted in resilience.
On a moody fall day in the East Village, bassist Julian Dimagiba & drummer Steve Patrick stumbled into a dive bar and caught Andy Tongren performing an acoustic set. The two realized that Tongren, an Ohio-born singer, songwriter, and guitarist, was what their band needed. They had instant chemistry, and the newly formed Sons threw themselves at the NYC and NJ circuits. After beginning to develop a humble, yet loyal fanbase they met producers Shep Goodman & Aaron Accetta.
In 2014 Young Rising Sons signed with Goodman & Accettas’ production company, Dirty Canvas Music, and released High. It garnered the attention of fans and industry executives alike. The band ultimately signed with Interscope Records and released their self-titled EP shortly after. Following their signing, Young Rising Sons played to the world through placements in Toyota, Pepsi and Hulu commercials, trailers – like Universal Picture’s A Dog’s Purpose, the Guitar Hero video game, and ESPN broadcasts of NCAA Football.
They have performed across the US, Canada, and the U.K. with the likes of Halsey, The 1975, & The Neighbourhood. From 200-cap shows at Bowery Electric, to a field of 20,000 at Firefly, the Sons fans have grown with the band. After a short hiatus, Young Rising Sons makes their long-awaited return with ‘+WHISKEY-‘ in hand.

To be put simply, Whiskey is about addiction, whether it is a substance, activity, or another human. It’s easy for lines to blur and for your judgment to become distorted when you’re so dependent upon something. You fall into this push/pull routine where you can’t help but continue to come back to the source, no matter the misery it causes. Whiskey is about the moment where you have to say yes.
