Any more information you would like to tell us? | Hayes has already declared himself an admirer, as has acclaimed Irish-American fiddler Liz Carroll, which pretty much tells you all you need to know about this remarkable musician' ***** (5 Stars) R and R Magazine '...it captures Young in full, zestful flight...' ***** (5 Stars) The Scotsman 'It is traditional Scottish dance music for the perpetually heartbroken' https://tradfolk.co/music/reviews/ryan-young-just-a-second-a-review/ 'Ryan is a master of making you listen to and appreciate every note' - Fatea Magazine https://www.fatea-records.co.uk/magazine/reviews/RyanYoung/ 'This is soul music, with the power to release every kind of emotion and the ability to heal' https://pennyblackmusic.co.uk/Home/Details?id=27956 'One often sees the phrase “breathing fresh life into” used to describe new arrangements of traditional tunes. But that doesn’t come close to describing what Ryan Young achieves with his treatments of both traditional and contemporary tunes. He has the musical imagination to see a tune’s potential for apparently endless variations and the compositional and performance skills to bring them to fruition.' https://klofmag.com/2023/10/ryan-young-just-a-second-album-review/ 'With Just a Second Young takes a step forward on the journey that started with his eponymous release. This unpretentious and yet beautifully delivered selection of tunes confirms his well-deserved status as one of the most acclaimed fiddlers in Britain.' https://brightyoungfolk.com/records/just-a-second-ryan-young |
