Former Member - Old Youth LP
Release Information: “Of all my bands, this name makes the most sense of all,” explains FORMER MEMBER frontman Jason Shevchuk. “I have a musical past. Anything I do musically comes with baggage. No matter what I do, I’ll always be a former member of something.” Shevchuk messing around on his guitar with no agenda and Grammy-nominated producer Will Yip having the urge to play drums lead to the culmination of their debut album Old Youth which is set for a worldwide release on July 13th via Yip’s very own Memory Music. The album was co-produced by Yip and Shevchuk. Drums were tracked at the legendary Studio 4 in Conshohocken, PA while guitars, bass, and vocals were recorded at different times. From the mesmerizing opening track “Cold Open” to the non-stop head nodding single “Morocco At The In The Morning” to the arousing and anthemic “Prospector” to the downbeat “First Threshold” – Old Youth sounds like what you’d expect out of this duo but vastly surpasses your own expectations.Jason S
