Your grandma and grandpa may have told you they joined the choir, but when they told you they were covering the classics did you think it was Sonic Youth? Formed in 1982 at an elderly housing project in Northampton, MA, Young@Heart is a white-haired vocal group that has toured the world and pushed their music into "glorious new directions” by singing "young people’s music” — i.e., OutKast, Radiohead and Coldplay, and this SY classic from 1987’s Sister.
