Young and Sexy is a Canadian indie pop band from Vancouver, British Columbia, consisting of vocalists Paul Pittman and Lucy Brain, guitarist André Lagacé, bassist Brent McDonald and former drummer Alex Brain. The band has released four albums on Mint Records.

"These eleven new songs wield the rare gift of both artful experimentation and strong melodic invention. The Arc is full of classical, baroque pop and prog rock influences. Songs move from one movement to another cradling lyrics that focus on medieval and pagan imagery with a touch of spiritualism. The band that released Stand Up For Your Mother (their Mint Records debut) has now moved into dark and mysterious passages such as, "The wick is lit, unsettling shadows play. The rhythm beats wild and we dance. Now mix the elixir." (From "The Demon Dreaming") Recorded and produced at The Hive Studios in Vancouver B.C. by Colin Stewart (Black Mountain, Cave Singers, Ladyhawk, Swan Lake), The Arc fits securely into Young and Sexy's ever-changing musical canon."
