Young dreamers everywhere fantasize about becoming overnight sensations. The scenario goes something like this: One day they're unknown, the next they're discovered and being chauffeured around in a limousine. But in reality, most overnight sensations are years in the making. In the case of Youngstown, the male vocal trio comprised of James Dallas, David Yeager, and Sam Lopez, they've earned their chance in the spotlight through countless hours of songwriting, harmonizing, and creating honest music that is bound to capture the hearts of listeners everywhere. "We kept our heads up, we got out pens and pads, and we just kept doing it until we finally did it," explains David, aka DC, about the road to recording their Hollywood Records debut album, Let's Roll.
The threesome, who are based in Youngstown, Ohio (hence the name), have been working on their craft individually since they were teenagers. Dallas, who's 24, met 23-year-old DC through mutual friends several years ago. When Part 4, Dallas' original group, needed a fifth member to complete their harmonies, DC was brought on board. Eventually, they moved to Atlanta to jump-start their music career. But when the other members of the group quit to pursue other avenues, Dallas and DC were left to figure out their next move. That's when Sammy, at 21 the youngest member of the trio, entered the picture. He already knew the guys from Youngstown, and during a visit to his mom in Atlanta he learned that they were looking for a new member. "I was like, 'Yo, I want to do music, so let's do this,'" recalls Sammy. "It wasn't like we were put together," concurs DC. "We did it ourselves."
The pop moods, R&B grooves, and funked-up rhythms of Let's Roll prove that Youngstown are no flash-in-the-pan studio creation. As for Dallas, Sammy, and DC, they've got one goal in mind: to move people with their music. "As long as some of our songs touch other people, that's cool with us," DC explains. "We just want to be onstage and watch people singing our songs. That would be the best feeling in the world."
