About Young Swan

Young Swan is a Chicago-based rock band featuring Edmund Sinnott on vocals, guitar, and keys; Daniel Laumbacher on drums and vocals; and Zach Porlier on bass and vocals. The band blends the best elements of '80s UK synth pop and '90s West Coast rock to create a sound that's both original and nostalgically familiar.

The trio met while attending college, where they formed their first band, The Corduroy, in 2009. Their debut EP, Madeleine, earned them a spot as one of the top 10 finalists out of 729 entries nationwide in the VH1 Raw and Unprocessed Battle of the Bands. In 2014, Young Swan released their self-titled EP. Their music has been featured on WXRT and Spotify editor playlists. They’ve also shared the stage with acts like Nathaniel Rateliff and Fruit Bats. Young Swan continues to release new music and perform live, with more releases expected in late 2024.

Craftily arranged, hook-laden pop music...I think I’m in love with it.
— Richard Milne, "Local Anesthetic" 93.1 WXRT
You guys are great — love the guitar playing.
— John Cuniberti, Mixing and Mastering Engineer for Joe Satriani and Sammy Hagar
Really love this one. I put it somewhere in the top 10.
— Conrad Merced, curator of Chicago Indie Scene Playlist on Spotify
