Yamaha | Artist Breakthrough Story | Yvette Young - Guitar Saved My Life
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 окт 2024
- Get an insight into the lives and minds of artists in our series of ‘Artist Breakthrough Stories,’ where we hear about their passions, how they got to where they are today, and their defining “breakthrough” story.
In the first episode, Yvette Young talks about her musical journey-from her life as a child with a disciplined classical music education to touring with her band Covet.
As Yvette experimented with playing guitar and learned to play it on her terms, she regained control over her life after being hospitalized for an eating disorder as a teenager. Through this recovery process, she was able to rediscover both art-in the form of songwriting and drawing-and music as a means of self-expression.
“I don’t think I would be “living” if I wasn’t following what felt authentic to me, if I wasn’t creating things that felt meaningful to me. I’m living, and for me that means doing stuff that I love. For me living is living and breathing art and music.” - Yvette Young.

Your medicine is now our medicine👌Amazing lady! The art work on the guitar was awesome!!
This was a beautiful story Yvette. Keep up the good work in keeping your fans mesmerized, we love you!
Such an inspiration to me, I love her spark❤️🔥
Yvette is amazing. She deserves to be a superstar!
One of the most talented artists to ever live. She could play a jug or washboard and it'd be phenomenal.
Did not expect this to resonate with me so much. Being creative, on your own terms, might be the most important thing anyone can do
A very compelling story!
Thank you, Yvette, for being your authentic self and putting so much beauty into the world 🙏🏻
I had to watch it twice and it's 5 in the morning ... This was crazy insight into Yvette's life
It's an interesting and amazing thing that one's spirit can feel so full from encountering another's spirit via such an impersonal medium.
Love her story, she's amazing in so many ways, I absolutely adore her.
Thank you Yvette. ❤
Very inspiring story from an extraordinary musician and beautiful person!
Cool story!
Needed this tonight. Thanks, Yvette
Always inspiring, yvettes words are very heartening 💙💙 shes had a hard story, but an even brighter light that blooms harder than any darkness
Ok, I just came back from her show yesterday in Taipei, and I'm now obsessed !
I actually discovered her, like a lot of people, in 2017, when she casually dropped that IG story on how to guitar tap while playing Shibuya, and GODDAMN I was gobsmacked by what I had just seen. I've never anyone play guitar like that before ! 2017 was definitely a great year for music, with the major blow up on youtube and/or other social medias of supremely talented young musicians like FKJ, Elise Trouw, Sabrina Claudio, and now Yvette !
I was instantly hooked, but never ever thought I would have the chance to see her live, as I was based in either Taiwan and/or Belgium, and she was touring solely in the US, so the thought of going to see her live never even occured to me. So over the years, I slowly kinda fell off the wagon.
Fast forward 6 years later, and while I'm in Taiwan, I just learn she's coming to have a gig there too ! What !?
I just had to go see them !
And damn ! Seeing them live, the experience was really transportative ! I felt I was on a little cloud the whole time and the hour and half just flew by !
But on top of it, I felt there was something else I couldn't quite nail that I felt all throughout the concert, something important, but that I couldn't quite put words on.
After the concert, we all had the chance to talk a little bit with the band , and it was such a sweet and cheerful moment.
Now that I've been to her show yesterday, my love of her music has been rekindled again, and I'm scouting all over youtube to see (and hear) all the goodness her band has been doing all theze years I've been missing out, basking into all the good vibes.
And then I stumble upon this interview.
And all of a sudden, it all clicked !
That's what I felt during the concert, that I couldn't quite name, but felt all throughout their play !
She's someone who's came back from death ! She faced it before, and now she's writing music as a celebration of life !
As much as music (and especially her learning how to play guitar her own way) healed her & brought her back to life, her guitar is in turn healing us, the audience. Every single note she plays just oozes the love of life !
Even if some of her tracks sounds melancholic, there's really none of them that feels angsty or anxious, or depressed, or anything negative... It's all positive vibe, from the keys, the chords, and the chippy rythm she taps into her guitar.
This interview (absolutely gorgeously shot, btw) made me understand so much more why she's so damn popular with anybody who discovers her, because she's the living embodiment of feel good music !
I kinda wish I had seen it before their gig, now, coz then I could have told her all that, and would have thanked her even more for sharing this passion and skills of hers to the world.
Thank you for existing, Yvette !
You bring beauty in this rather depressing world of ours. And there is much to be grateful for it !
Haha yeah, my gateway to her music was her insta stories too!

I recognized myself very much in what Yvette said about Art and guitar (at my level of course) because she's an excellent musician, and also about birds ! 😊And also about alimentations troubles. Her anorexia for her, i understood was a way to reject all this pression about music learning. And i agree when she says that the best way to appreciate and live music in harmony is to play as the feelings go, i'd say instinctively even if the theory of a classical teaching helps to play perfectly with technics, knowing the notes, i believe. I had understood at once when discovering her, and reading her tatoo "resilient" that was a hard part of her story.
I relate to what you said about being a kid having gone by before you have the chance to play. I am a big kid adult now because of it😂😂🤣🤣with my kids
Yvette is an amazing musician. She inspires me so much. Also, Yamaha guitars are seriously such quality instruments that don’t break the bank. The acoustics specifically catch my ear every time I hear one in a guitar store.
Yvette I really enjoyed this video. You're very inspiring.
Damn, they even brought out the anamorphics for this one, really went all out for our girl Yvette.
Thank you so much for this Yvette. Just got to the full video from IG and had to say thanks again for sharing this. Can’t wait to watch it all!!
She’s amazing , she didnt even have to change her genre to gain attention… art and talent is all it takes.
What a gorgeous inspirational human being, so much passion in these words.
Thank you so much for sharing your story. I really appreciate the authenticity and your willingness to open up.
Some humans reconciliate yourself with humanity.
Thank you Yvette..
What a gift for storytelling. Beyond the music Yvette’s ability to articulate things is inspiring. I’m not sure a musical collaboration with Nahre Sol would necessarily spell alchemy, but they should definitely share a cup of coffee.
Cormorant on the rocks at the end 🥰 Perfection. Love watching them here in Oswego
Talented, beautiful and inspiring. Thank you for being who you are.❤️🙏🏻
She is a beautiful person and a more beautiful guitarist. Inspiration to many of us, including me. Love her sm and her music.
We need the song
I have so much respect for her as a person and musician. We have had different struggles in life, but damn if I can't relate on so many levels. She's a soul sister that's for sure!
She is a beautiful woman that produces equally beautiful music. I’ve been smitten since the first song I heard from her.

Always play by feel it's your heart speaking.
She's just a goddess.
Wow, Yamaha needs to keep doing branding videos like these
I thought she uses Ibanez guitars or is this for acoustic?
The guitar that they decorated is now a great work of art. I'm such a fan of this woman. Hope to see and hear her and her band perform soon.
Does someone know what the last song is plzzzzzz
beautiful Yvette Young!
