Been listening to these lads for 10 years now…..
Never ever disappoint 💕

[Waluiginumberone]

As someone who’s 26 and still dealing with struggles with life and identity and purpose, hearing Sam Herring say “Life’s hard when you’re young but it evens out over time. Let’s get through this together, alright?” made me want to cry🥹

[shirleenrogers]

OMG only just found this group this evening, they’re brilliant. Found them when I was searching for a song on a TV advert because I thought it was catchy. So glad I did.

[H_j]

Can’t believe I just discovered Future Islands. So unique. Sam is mesmerising.

[chrishayes]

Sam is the best! I just love these guys! I can jam to them all day!

[yak]

That dude is one of the best frontmen I've seen in years.

[CivilianSheepdog]

It’s literally like going to church the man is very passionate spiritual powerful emotions 100%
