Finding a new and exciting artist is like coming up for air after swimming aimlessly in an ocean full of music. However, that's exactly the feeling we got after being put on to the singer, songwriter, and producer, YOUNGFACE.
As a Boston native YOUNGFACE a.k.a Ben, began his musical exploration at the young age of 8, when his mom gave him his first guitar. Guitar lead him to perform in a bands, which as a result, greatly influenced his musical preferences. Ultimately wanting to be somewhere between alternative rock, modern hip-hop and pop music, Ben began to discover himself and his sound more and more. But, eventually he decided to branch off into his solo project, and release "Mueve Mueve". This song channels Ben's Latin-American, or more specifically Guatemalan roots. Really, now we know him best as the bilingual YOUNGFACE.
Having released just under 10 tracks with this project already; the variety of songs effortlessly shows off Ben's musical abilities. Each tune seamlessly glides into the next. Eccentric production and catchy toplines at the forefront of each song. Yet, track after track, Ben manages to keep his aim at pushing his boundaries. In turn, providing listeners the most authentic version of himself. On tracks like "dontwasteyourtime," the young artist packs emotion and heartfelt messages into a minimalistic beat. While tracks like "Ocean" keep the attention on the lyrical riffs and melodies, creating a memorable listening experience.
With such an impressive catalogue, there is no doubt that YOUNGFACE will be an act to watch this year.
