An expressive performer, and a dynamo of a singer with a chameleon
voice, Young is glad to be back on stage with his new sound. The
Ground is the result of Young’s last 4 years as a producer and a
needed respite from playing and recording his own
material.
Young considers this album to be his masterpiece, a long time
coming but worth the wait. The time away has given him perspective
and the ability to get closer to his musical roots. “In the
studio, I so often find myself trying to get artists to go beyond
what’s current and get to the guts of their own sound,” says
Young. “It’s great to make the nod to what’s hip, but what’s
unique about an artist is way more interesting. Seeing other
artists wrestle with that truth has forced me to examine my own
sins, and the truth is, what you get connects with more people and
in a deeper way.” More about Everett>
