An artist who has been noted for his bold authenticity and unapologetic lyrics, David James Young has been through the woods and back musically, and now brings with him a mature, satirical and acutely real second album.
Not a stranger to struggle, Young, AKA Nothing Rhymes With David, has undertaken quite the journey in his musical endeavours. Following the arrival of his debut album,Little Bear, Young went on to quit playing live music and wonder whether to put aside his guitar for good, before thinking the better of it. Now he’s come out swinging with his new album,Things Work Out For People Like You.
Taking joy from pop culture references – everything from Katy Perry to pro wrestling – Young has emerged with confidence and wit to craft an album that pushes the envelope, charges the senses and is unafraid to call society out on its crap.
Nothing Rhymes With Davidwill launch the record at Black Wire Records on Sunday May 29.
