Californian artist Chris Youmans has to be one of the most promising pop newcomers to emerge from the US in recent times.
This talent is building traction globally thanks to his distinct take on music—which blends electronic pop with elements of funk, soul, and jazz.. Youmans cites his musical icons as Nile Rodgers, Quincy Jones, and Max Martin—and you’ll hear all of those inspirations come through when playing any one of his many brilliant songs.
‘Too Close’ is lifted from the album ‘Electric Love Connection,’ which is out now. You can also catch Youmans performing at LA’s iconic Viper Room on the 8th of March—tickets available here.
It’s almost impossible not to feel some kind of connection with this musician’s work, and for that, we think he’s a star in the making.
