Young the Giant American Bollywood

American Bollywood is Young the Giant's first album in four years since Mirror Master and the first since leaving the major label system. Since their last album, three of the band members became fathers, and of course there was a global pandemic. With lyrics mostly written by the band's lead singer Sameer Gadhia, the son of Indian immigrants, the album tells the multi-generational saga of the American immigrant, and the origins, exiles, battles, and denouement of reclaiming their collective identity. "This is not just the story of an Indian-American caught in between two worlds," Gadhia said. "It's also our universal search to find meaning in chaos." The album was co-produced by John Hill (Santigold, M.I.A., Phantogram, Khalid) and the members of Young The Giant.
