"Find things that give you value that you're in control of" -Yvette. That is some seriously good advice
24:14
Yvette is in the top 1% of humanity. She is so rare. More people should appreciate her and her art.
She is a big inspiration to musicians.
Wow this interview was really awesome. Yvette is so down-to-earth and hyper aware about her positionality as a creative artist and how much artistic freedom she has. Critical thinking like that and self-reflection is really impressive and really deserves respect. She's so inspiring I love her so much fuck I'm in awe
Edit: can't wait to see covet in Seattle!
Jajaja just saw them in Seattle ;) Beautiful
i have been watching Yvette young for a while now, her guitar playing is so good and unique and she has a personality to match. just a huge fan.
Very interesting, it's crazy that she has only been playing guitar for about 6 or 7 years.
Gavin Carney i know right ! she’s been a musician all her life tho so i’m sure figuring guitar out didn’t take her too long & it shows. her tapping is insane
She literally has a guitar playing video from 2009 on her channel, wtf are you talking about
@@TheTrendkillerx Literally bro, literally.
@@TheTrendkillerx probably she meant consistently using and practicing it I would assume
She’s one of my favorite guitarists and musicians in general. Her melodies are beautiful. I met Covet when I lived in Pittsburgh. Awesome people. It’s nice hearing her talk about her life and what she likes besides music.
You sound so wise and sincere and open. And your music is like watching a sunset or a puppy. What I mean by that is "why it is great to be alive" stuff. Thanks! I sure hope your battle with depression is won. We need you.
pure at heart and talented
Yvette seems like a fascinating person. I think its great that she creates art because she loves it rather than because she feels she has to do it to earn a living. On the contrary to what she says 28:14, I think she knows a great deal about love.
I just looked up her music on Bandcamp and it gave me nostalgia back to Naruto outro credits. Its that good.
Check out Ares.
Good interview dude. You really need more of this
Thank you for this interview!!
Love Yvette! Great interview!
Yvette is so motivating!
She's one my favorite guitarists, and she seems to be so smart and sweet.
love yvette so much :') saw her when she played in fresno back in 2015!! 💖
Wow the last bit was great....
Thanks Yvette
Wow I didn’t know Yvette had an eating disorder! That’s so sad 😢 good for her for overcoming and speaking openly about her experience.
This interview is absolutely amazing...
One of the few channels that constantly puts out great content. Keep up the good work!
Really good interview :-) thank you for doing this , Cheers!!
Amazing! thank you for this. I'm a huge fan of Yvette and her many talents. Happy to get to know her a bit
What an epic interview that was.......👏👏 "Love is unselfish"
such a beautiful soul and artist . Inspiring
I'm so in awe of how talented she is
I can't tell if her ideas are more enchanting, or her voice 😍
The best sidewalk ever! love Yvette
Great questions and I appreciate how sincere Yvette’s responses were. Thanks for sharing !
No way! Didn't expect an Yvette Young interview... Considering you've done some other of my non-guitar music i dig. ;) Awesome!
Me too
Those were some really beautiful questions, deep and fresh.
thank you
That was such a cool interview! Really liked it. And Yvette you have given so much already in form of songs and art, you really dont need to worry :)
I HAD NO IDEA THIS EXISTED! YVETTE IS MY FAVORITE GUITARIST OMG
You already have contributed immeasurably and changed the landscape of the genre of music we guitar nerds dwell on
this is a really cool format for an interview. keep these up! :)
Great interview! Yvette is such a cool, progressive young talent. I’ve been a fan of her and Covet for quite a few years and it’s awesome seeing her/them gain some serious traction recently. She’s a guitar-tapping, key-flying cutie that’s got a great musical future ahead and can’t wait to see where the journey leads...cheers!!🤘🏻
Thank you for this. The topic on mental illness was really approachable and honest. I hope it encourages more people to be open. Amazing video!
Yvette is literal perfection in human form. I've been stuck in the beginner phase of playing guitar for longer than a decade but she inspires me to get better at playing one day.
Great interview, really got a personal perspective of Yvette .
a great interview trip :)
What a dope soul. I hope one day she comes to the east side to play her acoustic material.
Thank you 💜
Actually loved every second of this, so inspiring to hear all of this, felt a lot more in detail with her responses!
Prescient, precocious, young lass. I like how we heal ourselves with art.
you are fun to have discovered . I loved the guitar duo with Ichika Nito...amazing and your facial expressions when you play make your pieces even more interesting what they mean to you when you play.
Binge watching everything Yvette in 2020!
Same! Can't get enough of her...
She smile so sweet!.. beautiful
It seems that Yvette had gotten emotional at the end of the interview. She choked up a bit with tears at the brink of her eyes
great interview.... a few nuggets of wisdom in there
Yvette's an angel.
It's the love (wip) girl :)
SHE GLOWS WITH ENERGY!, Seeing this has sent me upwards, I too am an intense perfectionist, however less of an academic intellectual:((, I'm gonna escape this cursed hole and fuck the world up in a beautiful way with beautiful music, just like Covet.
shit...I think I'm in love with this girl
We all do bro.
Aren't we all ?
Im a simple man, I see Yvette, I click
Yvette is dope and so are your videos
8:34 At first, I literally thought she was saying "hi" to the person whose voice you can hear off-camera. 😂
Yvette is an incredible person. So much talent. That's funny her first guitar song was by Creed. O my God! 😁
Subscribed!
ending up so inspiring~
This woman is so cool, apart from a very creative artist
I love artist from anywhere and everywhere and sorry for the bias but man finding out Yvette was from Cali is awesome as hell.
Or as the true Californians say, that’s hella dope😂
Dude Yvette is so fucking cool. Please play the east coast so I can ask you out . Damn
Such a sweetie she's the best
One of my favorite mid west emo guitar player. I wish she sang too, even if she didn’t have a ‘good’ voice, that’s the best with mid west emo, just as long as there’s emotions in there and shes singing from the heart.
Covet just released a song where she sings
ndy8888 what’s it called !?!?
Check out her solo acoustic stuff. She sings in that
Duuuude theres a lot of videos and audios of her singing, just check acoustics 2 in spotify
I'm getting a workout sitting down just watching them walk. I'm tired now. Whew
I can't picture her as a "bully" growing up lol. She's too cute and sweet.
when people downplay theirself like that its usually an exaggeration of words and they might imply something else less "stricter", you can see she's trying to find the right and simple words to explain things. for all we know, she may have been emo-ish and in turn made her look like someone no one wants to deal with.
Acabo de ver a Covet hoy. Y es otro pinshe pedo, la neri ! Felicidades por su gran trabajo :)
The interviewer is pretty, I like her.:)
Excellent
I wonder if and when she will receive the recognition she deserves.
i wanna hug elementary school yvy
isfp-intp wombo combo personality type. I admire her!
When you're as talented as she is, fans will do the advertising for her!!
Yvette is an amazing human being. Genuine,attractive, sincere and a very positive energy giver. Yes, i would take her home to meet mom. For sure!
Legends says they're still walking
Yvette is lovely. Beautiful woman.
How could Yvette possibly have been nicer?
Ikr
Yvette always makes me wish I grew up in Cali like she did....literally no cool girls like her in my area.
Damn....Unexpected interview, but cool as fuck
i find females are so wonderful in expressing how they see themselves and the world. Or at least, they have greater intuition into understanding themselves. I find for men, that intuition isn't as natural or innate and comes with honest learning. With our public schools failing to educate and technology/social media more and more encircling our lives, both genders will suffer, but men will suffer the most (at least directly, with females being more indirectly effected). Without having that innate intuition, they will be more disconnected from themselves. This inability to see themselves honestly will lead to an inability to communicate effectively, I feel this will cause a greater disconnect between the genders. This is only a current though I had and I don't mean to generalize. Please feel free to call bullshit.
yvette is straight up awesome .... the story about her dad's coworkers son is jokes
"ive got a big, LLLEESSBIAN CRUSH ON YOU"
Time?
She's pretty hilarious lol
Great questions and interview but sit down and have a conversation. Damn dude.
Yvette Young is a genius. Love her head, heart and hands. I wish to bestow a kiss upon her hands and feet. Thanks for this interview. Cheers!
Politefan that’s really odd bro.
@@cookie-ks2bh, cookie, cookie....I was saying I kiss the feet of real talent and genius in a metaphorical sense. I guess that's really bloody odd unless you.re too dim witted to understand what I was trying to say (or you simply want to be a troll who casts aspersions just to annoy people). Do me a favor and go F yourself. Understand that?
@@politefan6271 ok "POLITE" fan.
@@cookie-ks2bhWoW you cut me to the quick by pointing out I'm not being so *polite* with you. Isn't that ironic "COOKIE" the unnecessarily commenting, aspersion casting troll? Do you understand my irritation with you now "COOKIE" or do I need to keep restating my point ?
Politefan bruh chill
Interesting that she's still not making a stable living at it; I'd consider her pretty successful. Makes you wonder how many talented people actually are. That said, she doesn't seem like the type to put a lot of focus on how best to monetize her talents.
@1:15 yes that seems very rare for asian immigrants first generation. very rare
Don't tab it out tf...
Really nice interview
very cool
But like
chinese parents
where the "young" come from? Or is that just to fit in better :(
Probably Yang. Some Asians will use young.
Most Asians in America that have Hwang, Wang, Yang & the like use Young as a Western surname (see Tiffany Hwang)
Some*, not most lol
Is that a love bite on Yvettes neck.
ayy NorCal person lol
interview Definitive if you even know who it is lol
moooo 🐄
Anyone notice the hickey?? Or is it just me? Lol
Is this real life or did you totally reply to my comment?!! ❤❤❤❤ lol you're the best btw!!
cuz you put it there? :P
dehydratedH2O what did he comment?
I don't remember exactly, but something along the lines of "I don't see it/I don't know what you're talking about" -- hehehe cute little love birbs
dehydratedH2O they both look really cute together.
San's gf?
they have been co writing songs together, tour together so i dont think
Sahara Barba but yvette and san kiss each other all the time on insta story
they're perfect for each other, both sincere, kind, and genuine artists
Yolo way is my ninja way..
