Virginia Tech Union presents the 2018 Homecoming Concert featuring Young the Giant on Thursday, November 1, 2018 at Burruss Auditorium. Young the Giant is a Los Angeles, California quintet that blend indie pop and stadium rock mixed with their member's international backgrounds. The band first broke through with their 2010 self-titled debut album, which featured the RIAA-gold certified hits, "My Body" and "Cough Syrup." This was followed by the release of 2014’s "Mind Over Matter", which was both a commercial and critical success. Young the Giant continued to brave new themes and sonic landscapes with their wildly adventurous third album, "Home of the Strange". Young the Giant has sold out performances at historic venues such as Radio City Music Hall, The Greek Theatre in Los Angeles, The Aragon Ballroom in Chicago, Red Rocks Amphitheater in Morrison, and more. They have become a festival mainstay at high profile outings such as Bonnaroo, Austin City Limits, Lollapalooza, Outside Lands, and Governor's Ball among others.
