Yungblud

2 festivals played

UK alt-rock provocateur — theatrical, communal, and louder every year, a fanbase that treats shows like family reunions.

Yungblud is the stage name of Dominic Harrison, a singer and songwriter from Doncaster in northern England. He emerged in the late 2010s with a sound that pulls from pop-punk, glam and British guitar rock, delivered in a broad Yorkshire accent and paired with lyrics about class, alienation and youth politics.

His records have grown steadily bigger and more theatrical since his debut, and he has worked with figures from across pop and rock, including collaborations with Halsey and Travis Barker. Much of his reputation rests on the live show and on the closeness of the audience around it: the band plays fast and loud, Harrison talks between songs as much as he sings, and the crowd is treated as part of the performance rather than an audience for it.
