Young Guns are an English alternative rock band from High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire. In 2009 they released their debut EP, "Mirrors", and have supported bands such as Lostprophets, Fightstar, The Used, Taking Back Sunday and We Are The Ocean. On January 25, they released a free download of their single Winter Kiss. They also won the award of Best New Band in Kerrang! magazine's 2009 Reader's Poll and also toured as part of the Kerrang! Relentless Energy Drink Tour 2010 with All Time Low, The Blackout and My Passion, and Jettblack for the last two dates on the tour at the London Roundhouse.
Young Guns have also toured numerous times with Deaf Havana, who they are very good, close friends with.
The band have also played the 2010 legs of the Slam Dunk Festivals in Leeds and Hatfield, as well as being announced as opening the Main Stage for the Reading and Leeds Festivals on the same day as Guns 'N' Roses and Queens Of The Stone Age, although opening for those bands on the same day in no way reflects upon their own ability . They have also confirmed that they shall be sub-headlining the Pepsi Max Stage at the Download Festival.
In April and May 2010, Young Guns completed their own headline tour of the UK with Outcry Collective and Save Your Breath
They have also completed recording their first album All Our Kings Are Dead, set to be released on the 12th July 2010, with the first single being Sons Of Apathy & second being "Crystal Clear" released on July 26, 2010.
