Young Astronaut originated in the suburbs of the New Forest as two members, brothers Chris and Pete Boakes, in 2007. For the next four years they remained a duo during which they experimented with writing a harmonious and considered blend of music - the foundation of Young Astronaut’s tonality. Part by part, melodic explorations, lyrics and acoustic ideas were refined and evolved until ten tracks formed the basis of an album. The addition of drummer Niko Battistini added a strong percussive presence. After spending a month in the studio 'Fawn', their full-length debut album was complete. Fawn showcases Young Astronaut's fusion of indie, acoustic and folk, capturing the full spectrum of sounds that the band produce.
