Glass Modern

Glass Modern is a London independent record label that has been making waves in the music industry since its inception in 1981. Originally known as Glass Records (2), the label played a pivotal role during the vibrant 1980s music scene and continued to operate until 1990.
After a brief hiatus, Glass Records made a triumphant return in 2015 under the name Glass Redux. This resurrection brought new life to the label, allowing it to once again showcase its passion for groundbreaking music.
In 2018, Glass Modern was launched as an imprint of Glass Redux. With this exciting development, the label expanded its roster and continued to push boundaries within the industry. Known for their commitment to artistic integrity and innovation, *Glass Modern* has become synonymous with quality music that challenges conventions.

Richard Youngs is a British musician known for his prolific and diverse output. Based in Glasgow, he has been actively creating music since the early 1990s. Youngs is skilled in playing various instruments, with the guitar being his most common choice. However, he also experiments with other instruments such as the shakuhachi, accordion, theremin, dulcimer, and even a motorway bridge. He has released numerous solo albums and collaborated with many artists throughout his career.

For many years, Youngs rarely performed live due to extreme stage fright. However, in recent years he has overcome this fear and started performing more regularly. His recent shows have predominantly featured his vocals after attending a laptop concert that inspired him to sing.

Youngs' musical style falls within the realm of experimental music. His unique sound can be compared to artists like *Loren Connors*, *Sir Richard Bishop*, *Six Organs Of Admittance*, and *Jackie O Motherfucker*. With an extensive discography and a reputation for pushing boundaries, Richard Youngs continues to captivate audiences with his innovative approach to music.

Richard Youngs is not shy of broaching new genres or approaches. Within each album he’s remarkably conceptually consistent. On Holograph, his first new songs LP for Glass in two years, he’s working with temporal constraints, composing to commission across a long weekend. The sleeve itself tells the story. It’s pop-not-pop with Youngs’ clarion call folksy voice soaring over the top.
