The Beaches

YUNGBLUD
YUNGBLUD is a nineteen year old rocker from Doncaster. His take on rock includes a fusion of hip-hop and alternative genres. In true rocker fashion, the music often carries a poignant message, like the one he tells of generational misunderstanding in his tune “Psychotic Kids”. He also covers the controversial topics of sexual assault and even the gentrification of his hometown.
