2019 single by Sheppard
"Die Young" is a song by Australian indie pop band Sheppard. It was released as a single on 18 October 2019. "Die Young" came after frontman George Sheppard was forced to consider the band's future following a throat injury and surgery in 2019. In a statement, the band said "We began to ask what we wanted next, for ourselves individually, for the band and for our fans. We wrote 'Die Young' as though it was a 'final' Sheppard song; a song about appreciating each day and living it as though it was your last."[1] The song was released as the lead single from the band's forthcoming third studio album, Kaleidoscope Eyes (2021).[2]
