A six piece, Young Kato literally burst with energy onstage.
Each track seems packed with melody, with a spiky, precocious sense of youth. Heading into the studio, the band were forced to sit still long enough to record a new EP.
'Sunshine' will be released on September 28th, with Clash able to premiere a brand new preview ahead of this. 'Light It Up' is already a live favourite, and – according to Joe Green – it took mere minutes to write.
"Of all the tunes we have, 'Light It Up' is probably the one that took the least amount of time to write" he said. "It was written in our mates back garden about two months ago. It's a ballsy mash up of influences spanning from Duran Duran to EMF. It's a joy to play live and we hope that you enjoy it as much as we do."
Fast, breezy and to the point, you can tune in to 'Light It Up' below.
