‘fallen’ coming Friday 12th March... Often featured on BBC Introducing, Edward Young is from the Cambridgeshire/Lincolnshire UK border, and is heavily influenced by artists such as U2, Kings of Leon, Stereophonics, Coldplay, The Beatles, Muse and Kodaline.
 Edward’s first album ‘Change’ is full of huge melodies and colourful riffs, featuring the hits ‘Gridlock’, ‘Love & Solitude’ and ‘Sing You to Sleep’. ‘Faces’, Edward’s second album, was a change in direction and showed a storytelling side to Edward’s music. Best described as a stripped-back concept album, with a mix of influences from Cash and Bowie to Adele and Muse. It’s a character study which follows a story, and was designed to take the listener on a rollercoaster of emotions. This venture shot Edward to new heights with tunes including ‘Blank Page’, ‘Wake Up’ and ‘I’ll Be There’ becoming radio hits. ‘HOLD ON (FOR ANOTHER DAY)’ is a song of hope written for anyone having a tough time during the COVID-19 pandemic.
