Website: www.youngrmusic.com/ Since breaking through in 2016 with his self-released debut solo single ‘Out Of My System,’ UK-based musician Youngr has racked up over 150 million streams and played over 250 shows in 35 countries around the world.
Born in Greater Manchester, Youngr was born into a family of musicians, including Kid Creole and the Coconuts. This early exposure laid the foundation for his eclectic sound and production abilities.
Online, Youngr saw viral success with his unique one-take live videos of dancefloor-friendly bootlegs such as his take on ‘Sweet Disposition’ by The Temper Trap which enjoyed over 15 million views within the first two weeks of release.
Youngr’s original works include acclaimed releases such as This is not an Album and Live From Llamaland Studios which pushed Youngr’s creative limits by creating the album under a self-set challenge to make a piece of music everyday for 30 days, posting the resulting compositions on his social media channels.
As a one-man band, Youngr dramatically builds his tracks up layer by layer in real-time, He’s enjoyed highly successful appearances at global music gatherings such as Tomorrowland, Latitude Festival, SXSW, Ultra Music Festival and Boardmasters. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
