We had the good fortune of connecting with Reece Young and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Reece, is there something you believe many others might not?
There are tons of disingenuine artists in todays music scene. My goal is to defy the norm by being my true self. I will never be the guy that lip syncs in his car for views. I want people to resonate with the music in an authentic way.

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
The goal with my music is to aid anyone break free of their struggles. I want to be a voice for people who don’t have one. Every word I write is about me being in the lowest possible place I could be. Music helped me get out of it and I hope my music can help you too.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
I spend all of my time either at elegy coffee or the fox cocktail bar. I try to stay on the east side of the river to avoid that touristy stuff. East Nash has truly become a home for me, and I couldn’t be prouder to call it that.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
I want to shoutout my friends, family and therapist for helping me achieve every goal I set out. Especially my best friend Austin Neukirch. He believed in me before I was any good and has stuck by my side ever since.
