About Yungblud

Born Dominic Richard Harrison, Yungblud has rapidly emerged as one of the most captivating and fiercely individual voices in contemporary music. Hailing from Doncaster, his distinctive blend of punk rock, hip-hop, and indie pop, infused with a potent lyrical honesty, has resonated deeply with a global audience.

From his early EPs like ‘Yungblud’ and ‘The Underrated Youth’, he established a reputation for high-octane performances and a magnetic stage persona. His debut album, ‘21st Century Liability’ (2018), cemented his status, featuring anthems that championed individuality and challenged conformity.

His self-titled third album, ‘Yungblud’ (2022), continued this trajectory, showcasing his evolution as an artist while retaining the raw, rebellious spirit that first captured attention.

Notable hits that have soundtracked the journey of his rapidly expanding fanbase include the infectious energy of “California”, the defiant anthem “Machine Gun (Fk The NRA)”**, the introspective yet powerful “Parents”, and the widely embraced “Hope For The Underrated Youth”. More recently, tracks like “Memories!” featuring Willow Smith, and the poignant “Lowlife” have further demonstrated his artistic growth and his ability to connect with diverse audiences. Yungblud has also collaborated with a range of high-profile artists, further cementing his place at the forefront of modern music, and has become a recognisable figure for his distinctive fashion sense and outspoken activism.
