Fury Young is an artland rocker and surrealist rapper who grew up in downtown NYC in the 1990s. For years he has worked in music championing voices of other artists with FREER Records (formerly Die Jim Crow) - the first label in America for musicians in prison and formerly incarcerated. All the while, Fury was working on songs of his own that he never had time to finish or release. That changed in October 2023 with the debut of "X Ray," Fury's first song on streaming.

With influences ranging from Bon Iver to Krayzie Bone, Fury hopes to ignite and impassion fans of all stripes with an acoustic futuristic sound that takes listeners out of the city and into the clouds. Local heroes, endless highways, and widescreen wonders fill the canvas of these records, delivered in addictive, raw melodies.

Outside of his solo music work, Fury Young is a poet (Meat & Milk, 2016, Lit Riot Press) and collage/video artist. He works for FREER Records as its Co-Executive Director alongside BL Shirelle. Venues in which Young has performed or shown work include: MoMA PS1, Goodbye Blue Monday, Sidewalk, Anthology Film Archives, UnionDocs, The New School, and the Subway.
