Artist Spotlight: Young Man

Hey everyone!

Moving along with an all new edition of Artist Spotlight! Today, we have a promising on the rise band from the Windy City of Chicago called Young Man. The group consists of Colin Caulfield, Emmett Conway, Joe Bailey, Jeff Graupner, and Darien Williams. The band bills themselves as dabbling in creative pop, with distinct indie rock sensibilities thrown in for good measure and a calm, ambient attitude to match that immediately makes you feel relaxed and in tune to the well rehearsed tunes coming at you. I managed to catch these guys in concert last month at Great Scott in Allston and they put on a marvelous show that perfectly encapsulated their blend of indie pop and a mellow, toned down personality that perfectly matches what these guys are like offstage: humble and extremely passionate musicians who love what they do for a living and thoroughly enjoy communicating with their fans as well. A terrific young act with a wealth of potential coming on their path relatively soon. Some recommended tracks for you to uncover include "By and By" and "Do".

For more info on Young Man, head on over to the group's Facebook page at: www.facebook.com/youngmanmusic While you're there, you can find a link to stream their music directly from the page along with a list of their most recent tour dates. The band can also be followed on Twitter at: www.twitter.com/youngmancec where you stay up to date on the latest goings on from the band right this minute. I highly recommend you listen to the band's latest album "Vol.1", which you can pick up on iTunes at this link and stream on Spotify right here.
