Youth (singer)
Youth, a 25 year old[when?] Krissy Paraskeva, was born and raised in North London.[1][2] At 16 she won a full scholarship to Italia Conti. A year later Ben Elton picked Krissy to play the leading lady in Tonight’s The Night. At 17 she toured the country, and Ben Elton introduced her to William Orbit. Orbit took her to a studio session with Robbie Williams whose album he was producing.[3] Krissy recorded the backing vocals on Williams’ RudeBox and developed a taste for studio life.[2]
In 2013 Paraskeva started work on a solo project under the name Youth, making dark, left-field beats.[4] Youth has been supported by and received critical acclaim from BBC Introducing & Radio 1,[5] XFM,[6][7] TripleJ (Australia), the 405,[8] Earmilk,[9] Les Inrocks (Paris),[10] and Rankin's Hunger Magazine.[11]
Musical releases
Towards the very end of 2014 Youth collaborated on a 3 track EP with Paces,[12] a producer from Australia’s Gold Coast[13] who had remixed Hold Me.
Youth’s debut EP was titled About You and came out in April 2015 on Camouflage Recordings,[4] and featured Turtle, Illaman, Astro Zu and Young & Sick.
