Listen to Nothing Matters
Formed in 2012, the quartet calls Baltimore home, although the members of Diamond Youth are currently spread out across the country. Sharing a common background in art, design, skateboarding and music, the band has previously released three EPs, including the critically acclaimed 2013 EP Orange and 2014 EP Shake, on Topshelf Records.  Drawing influence from bands such as Pixies, Queens Of The Stone Age, and The Nerves, Diamond Youth writes infectious, catchy songs that are full of sunny guitar lines, warm reverb and gorgeous harmonies.

As previously mentioned, this week the band will embark on a full North America tour with Superheaven and Rozwell Kid.  They are also slated to play Asbury Park’s Skate and Surf Festival and Michigan’s Bled Fest (all tour dates below).
