“All I know is that after three songs, I’m hooked and I’d like more” – Obscure Sound
“…a glowing neon sign of widescreen synths, fresh-faced optimism, and blocky’80s drum programming.” – Wondering Sound
The peaceful ambience that is Youth Sounds comes from an innovative brother and sister duo that understands who they are and what they have to offer. Hailing from the streets of New Orleans , Erika and Lucho are self-taught musicians that gained experience in church choirs and developed their crafts by remaining artistically stylish. The combination of Erika’s soft and whispery voice gliding over Lucho’s piano leads and house backbeats on their debut EP, The Bit Parts, expresses the aptitude this duo possesses. With the addition of Nicholas (Drums) and Adrian (Guitar) Youth Sounds feels familiar and inviting in their effort to bring fresh melodies and new ideas to their brand of electro pop.
[wpex click for full bio]During a two-year hiatus, Youth Sounds spent a majority of their time reworking and redefining their sound. With a new sense of direction, the band was able to create some of their best work and record some compelling new material for their upcoming Favors EP. This hiatus also helped launch Lucho’s career as a producer, hooking up and working with Immaculate Taste artists Well$ and Alec Lomami. During this time, the connection with Immaculate also led to the forming of a side project called THE BL∆CK HE∆RTS CLUB and to the signing of Youth Sounds to Immaculate Taste’s management team. Youth Sounds’ elegant appeal and dreamlike moodiness branch from their appreciation for art and film. Encompassing these ideals in their music captures the essence of purity in their craft. Take part of Youth Sounds’ journey!
