Multi-platinum band Young the Giant released their new single, “Bitter Fruit”. Produced by Brendan O’Brien (AC/DC, Pearl Jam, Bruce Springsteen, Bob Dylan) and Young the Giant, and written by the band collectively, the anthemic song captures a yearning to reconnect with the wonder of youth — to feel alive, fall in love, and embrace life fully. An official music video for the track featuring never-before-seen studio footage is also out now — watch here.
Speaking on the new single, the band shared, “Bitter Fruit is a song about the struggle of being calloused by adulthood with a yearning to see the world fresh, through the eyes of a child: To feel alive and present with wonder and awe. When we wrote the line, ‘I wanna laugh and cry just like a child again,’ our engineer’s kids walked into the studio at that exact moment. It felt strangely fated.”
The release follows the band’s recent single “Different Kind Of Love,” which debuted as the #1 most-added track at Alternative Radio and #5 at Triple A in its first week — listen here. The track continues to climb at Alternative Radio, currently sitting in the Top 10. Both singles will appear on Young the Giant’s forthcoming sixth studio album Victory Garden, arriving May 1 — pre-order here. The project marks the band’s first full-length release since 2022’s American Bollywood.
Last month, Young the Giant announced their forthcoming Victory Garden Tour, kicking off May 24 and running through August 9 across North America. The run of arena and amphitheater shows will feature support from Cold War Kids, almost monday, and KennyHoopla, with Cold War Kids also celebrating the 20th anniversary of their debut album Robbers & Cowards. Tickets are available at YoungTheGiant.com/Tour.
