GHOST OF POP: Young Adult Fiction

by | Dec 2, 2011 | MUSIC

If this is where pop music is headed, count me in. Young Adult Fiction have already achieved quite a bit of acclaim among the local community for their approach to pop. They take elements of shoegaze and deliver hook after hook in every tune. At any given moment, they may sound like Built to Spill, Dinosaur Jr., or The Pains of Being Pure at Heart. This is their second year playing The Ghost of Pop. If their track record is any indication, Young Adult Fiction will soon be on the tip of everyone’s tongues when they talk about Richmond music.
