THE YOUNG EVILS/ THE CAMAROS

THE YOUNG EVILS, a rock outfit hailing from Seattle, Washington, are excellent evidence that final products often look nothing like initial intentions. Started as a lighthearted Vaselines-inspired pop duo composed of record store co-workers Troy Nelson and Mackenzie Mercer, the Young Evils today bear only passing resemblance to their past selves.

After their charming debut album Enchanted Chapel captured hearts far and wide, the duo expanded their sound, enlisting guitarist Michael Lee and teaming up with acclaimed Brooklyn-based producer/engineer Shane Stoneback (Vampire Weekend, Sleigh Bells, Cults) for the follow-up: the bombastic and wholly rock EP Foreign Spells. Today, brothers Brendon (bass) and Scott Helgason's (drums) rhythm section provide the back bone to the band's 80's inspired angular pop in a way only siblings can provide.

The band released the False Starts EP in Novemeber 2014. Recorded at the legendary Sound City Studios in Los Angeles and The Kill Room in Seattle, the record has received excellent reviews and a lot of attention. They will be rejoining Shane Stoneback in the studio to begin work on their next full-length album in the coming months.
