Vol. 1

Before he was even finished with the debut Young Man album, ”Ideas of Distance”,Colin Caulfield already knew what he wanted to do with this one, his first studio album with a full band. Due out May 22nd, ”Vol. 1” is the second in a three LP cycle first conceived in his Chicago dorm room in 2009. The idea was that after his introductory EP (2010’s critically-lauded ‘Boy’), he would release three full-length albums in a period of eighteen months. He wanted it to be a concept project about youth, about how that fleeting phase when you’re emerging into adulthood can feel like reliving two decades of highs and lows in just a couple years. ”I wanted all the things to come out in succession,” Caulfeild says, ”because the series documents what happened to me when I was writing them. The whole project more or less portrays the trajectory of a young musician, first staring out, making mistakes, then growing up.”
