Yotam Ben Horin (Useless ID) will release a solo album on May 20: Young Forever, to release on Double Helix Records.

Horin shared a new song, the title track, earlier this week and explains:

"Young Forever" is an open letter I wrote to my younger self. When Covid hit and I was stuck in Israel, I decided to digitize all of my VHS and MiniDV tapes. I went on a trip down memory lane when I rewatched some of them and was reminded of what I felt at the time, living with not a worry in the world other than the love of making music. I was instantly inspired to write the song. It was also the last song written for the album. Sometimes, we get so caught up in life that we forget to step away from it for a second and look around to see what really matters to us.

The album is built on a similar concept of sharing memories and experiences and is Horin's second solo record -- and first since 2012 (Distant Lover).

Young Forever track list:

01. Back to the Start
02. In Between the Highs and Lows

04. Here With Me
05. Leopard
06. Santa Monica Pier
