Hailing from southeastern Pennsylvania, The Youngers were founded in 1999 by Todd Notobartolo (vocals, guitar, lap steel, and mandolin) and Randy Krater (vocals, electric and upright bass). Joining them are bandmates Matt Thren (guitar) and Bruce Kissinger (drums).

The Youngers released their fifth full-length album, recorded in March of 2023 at the Wilco Loft in Chicago. They released their “Nashville Again” album in 2022, which follows Picture of You (2016), Heritage (2008) and Output (2005). A rollicking journey through the band’s stylistic influences, Nashville Again spent over four months on the Americana chart, reaching #2 on the Roots Rock chart.

In 2016, The Youngers released Picture of You. The entirely fan-funded Picture of You project was recorded at the venerable Sound Emporium in Nashville, TN and engineered by Grammy®-award winner Chuck Turner. Thanks to their sizable network of fans, The Youngers raised over $20,000 to record Picture of You through an online KickStarter campaign.

Released in 2008, the critically-acclaimed Heritage album was recorded at the Cash Cabin in Tennessee and produced by John Carter Cash, son of country music legends Johnny Cash and June Carter. Heritage cracked the top 30 on the Americana Chart and featured an all-star lineup of guests including Laura Cash on fiddle, Ronnie McCoury (Del McCoury Band) on mandolin and the late pedal-steel legend Ralph Mooney.

The Youngers are no strangers to big festival stages, having performed at Merlefest in 2023 and Delfest in Cumberland, MD and Musikfest in Bethlehem, PA. They have also shared stages with legends like the late Levon Helm at his famed “Midnight Ramble” and opened for Marty Stuart, Lee Rocker, David Allen Coe, Wayne Hancock, and Billy Bob Thornton and the Boxmasters.

Their music has been featured on NPR, Sirius Radio, WMOT in Nashville, WNCW in Asheville, and Cowboy Jack Clement’s Radio Show. Their albums have garnered glowing reviews by Vintage Guitar Magazine, Relix Magazine, and the Philadelphia Inquirer, among others.

SO, WHAT IS A ‘MUSIC LISTENING ROOM’?

A music listening room is a dedicated space or venue designed to create an intimate and focused atmosphere for live music performances. It provides a setting where the primary focus is on the music and the experience of actively listening to it. Unlike traditional concert venues or bars, music listening rooms prioritize respectful attention from the audience, creating an environment where the music takes center stage and performers can connect with their listeners on a deeper level. The seating arrangement, acoustics, and overall ambiance of a music-listening room are carefully designed to enhance the listening experience, allowing for a more intimate and immersive encounter between the audience and the artists.
