Biography
Opening for acts like Kate Voegle and Mandi Perkins, Krysta Youngs has proved that she knows how to rock out with the best of them.
Krysta Youngs Paints the World Pink with her Fabulous Stories
Feisty, speak-her-piece pop star Krysta Youngs is a colorful, creative and complicated character, qualities all perfectly captured on her stunning debut, Stories. Youngs, fresh out of Boston via her native Detroit, is Beantown’s answer to straight-shooting artists like Pink, Madonna, and Avril Lavigne, only without all that superstar baggage.
Krysta possesses a canny gift for storytelling, a delightful penchant for hi-octane, hugely melodic pop, and danceable grooves that just won’t quit. Her performances throughout the album are captivating. Her songs—rockin’, heartfelt, and literate—often pack devastating impact.
It might confuse things, or at least go against type, to know that Krysta Youngs has a fetish for the color pink, an infatuation with Top 40 stardom, and a fabulousness that just won’t quit. But it’s the yin of her straight talk and the yang of her girlie girl side that makes her completely unique, and who she most definitely is.
Frankly, you’ve got to see it to believe it.
