The Young Fresh Fellows United States
Biography
With their energetic rock sound, catchy melodies, and clever lyrics, the Young Fresh Fellows have survived since the 80s and hopefully outlived their novelty appeal. Leader Scott McCaughey (also of The Minus 5) is the chief songwriter, and later versions of the band have also featured gonzo guitarist Kurt Bloch of The Fastbacks. While wry humor is one of the defining features of the YFF style, the quality of McCaughey's songwriting has gained them decades of praise from critics, as well as a devoted following.
