Bassist Amanda Crosby, drummer Sarah Mannix and guitarist Rachel Sauter are likely growing used to the attention. In Raible’s original review of their April release, he called the album “a continuously enthralling listen.” The Little Village review was equally as enraptured, with Prairie Pop columnist Kembrew McLeod pointing out that “[i]t would be reductive to call Younger a 1990s revival group—because they bring much more to the table,” … but they’ve been beloved here in their home city since long before their album even dropped. Buzz was building as early as their debut show in 2014, thanks to the musicians’ success with their earlier projects (Crosby and Sauter in Emperor’s Club; Mannix with The Wandering Bears). Younger is definitely on the rise nationally, now, especially among devotees of the riot grrl sound that they embrace.
