Charley Young

In the artist’s words: Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “Phoenix Rising” "Phoenix Rising" is one of my most deeply personal songs, and one I feel most people can relate to. It's about overcoming obstacles and rising from the ashes of pain, despair, and loneliness, and knowing that you always can and will prevail. What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? Performing at the TD Bank Five Boro Bike Tour was incredible! I've also performed two times at the TCS New York City Marathon which has also been inspiring. As an athlete, I love supporting sports, and combining my love for both the arts and sports! Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? I create art to help others navigate their lives. If I know that I'm helping someone through a difficult experience or improving their life in some way, my mission is accomplished. There is no award or accolade that can beat that feeling.
