INFO: Lustful, haphazard, confused, angry, relieved; meet The Like Young.The Like Young is comprised of two people: Amanda (drums, vocals) and Joe Ziemba (guitar, vocals). Playing in bands together since 1997, the two tied the knot in 2002. The Like Young took shape that spring in Chicago. Goals were simple: have fun, say something meaningful, and be true to what they knew. Enough with the facts. Let's get interesting.Art Contest, the duo's debut album, was recorded by Barry Phipps (Coctails) and released by Parasol Records on May 20th, 2003. 11 songs, 24 minutes. New City Chicago named Art Contest album of the year and positive reviews poured in; Venus Magazine and the L.A. Times among them. After a self-booked two week jaunt to the west coast, the band decided to leave their day jobs behind and devote their full attention to the band. The remainder of 2003 was spent touring across the entire U.S., fully funded by the band themselves while away from home for months at a time. Expectedly, their savings widdled down to nothing. No big deal.
