Indie band based in Washington D.C. They are currently working on their first LP, "Day Light Savings" to be released on August 31, 2012. Recorded at Westbury Studios, Rockville, MD.

The new Young Rapids reemerged this year from their hiatus with purpose, though the expressive core of the DC dream pop group remains as strong as ever. As with their earliest recordings, today’s Young Rapids carefully and artfully synthesize their interests in storytelling and experimentalism into a vast yet direct sound that’s at times reminiscent of Radiohead, TV on the Radio and The Walkmen, while remaining uniquely original. The band will release their sophmore LP "Pretty Ugly" via Chimes Records on March 7th 2015.
