Sold out! YOUNG GUN SILVER FOX

In the organizer's words:

With their debut album "West End Coast" in 2015, Young Gun Silver Fox celebrated the AOR sound of the radio era of the last millennium like no other contemporary band. The genre is often referred to as soft rock, and even those who call it yacht rock are not completely off the mark. Andy "Young Gun" Platts and Shawn "Silver Fox" Lee have now reached album #5: "Pleasure" will be presented live for the first time in Germany on May 23, 2025 at the Mojo Club before a tour follows in September. With the show at the Mojo Club and the release of "Pleasure", Young Gun Silver are celebrating the tenth anniversary of their live debut, which also took place in Hamburg. At the show in the Knust, the setlist consisted of tracks from "West End Coast", the band had just been launched. Today, Platts & Lee can draw from the profound catalog of the other albums "AM Waves", "Canyons" and "Ticket To Shangri-La".

"The London band Young Gun Silver Fox evokes the yacht rock of great role models such as Steely Dan. And they do it magnificently. More escape from the world is hardly possible," wrote Andrian Kreye in a remarkable feature in the Süddeutsche Zeitung about the Paris show at the New Morning two years ago, which Young Gun Silver Fox had to follow up with a spontaneous midnight show because the crowds were simply too big. YGSF are now headlining festivals in the Netherlands and their last tour of the USA was almost sold out. Let's see what happens with "Pleasure": On May 2, 2025, the album will be released as an LP, CD and in the familiar digital formats on Légère Recordings. "I honestly think this album could be our best one yet!" Shawn Lee gloated on his social media the evening after the master release. There are serious rumors in yacht rock circles that he could be right.
