Although seeing their limitless ambitions frustrated by their lost year, Paris Youth Foundation continue to build on the dream foundations of their first ever shows being headline appearances at Leeds and Reading Festivals. Working with Blossoms and Courteeners producer, Rich Turvey at the legendary Parr Street Studios, Liverpool, The Back Seat brings out the best in the talented pop makers, entwining carnal, danceable beats and stadium-sized guitars in an unmissable landgrab on ground taken up by peers including Catfish and The Bottlemen, The 1975 and Two Door Cinema Club.
Assembled of Potter with Tom Morris Jones and Jamie Hives on guitars, drummer, Nathan Price and Mike Bower picking up bass guitar, the band formed in Liverpool in 2016 and scored near immediate BBC Radio One playlisting. Confidently playing into the hype surrounding their emergence, Paris Youth Foundation have since enjoyed packed UK tours, both as headliners and in support of bands including The Magic Gang, earning themselves a strong and growing following.
The band’s name comes from graffiti spotted in a Metro Station in the French capital, remembered by Potter from a childhood visit and decided, spur of the moment, for the release of the band’s breakthrough debut, If You Wanna.
