Conner Youngblood – Confidence

conneryoungblood

23 year old Yale grad blogger fave Conner Youngblood takes a stab at Arcade Fire-esque big sounding indie pop and mostly succeeds with “Confidence”. A soaring verse buoyed by arena-sized marching drums complements a more Youngblood-styled abstract chorus framed by hip hop & electronic elements (and while that melange of instrumentation reads like a potential disaster in the making, Youngblood ably manages it).
