Youngr

Youngr comes to Melkweg, Amsterdam on March 27, 2026 with a hybrid live show at the intersection of pop, melodic house and funk. The British producer and multi-instrumentalist, born Dario Darnell and son of August Darnell (Kid Creole), builds his tracks on the spot using drums, keys, vocals and loop stations. Known for one-take videos and reworks of pop and indie songs, he moves effortlessly in concert from his own material to clever edits without losing the flow. Thanks to his pop-oriented song structures, tight basslines and percussive hooks, it feels like both a band and an electronic set at the same time. Since his breakthrough with "Out Of My System" in 2016 he has released a steady stream of singles, remixes and collaborations from the European pop and dance scene; you can hear that in the way he brings together tension, drops and melodies. Expect a concise solo set that builds layer by layer, with vocal chops, synth stabs and rhythms he stacks in real time into danceable, accessible songs, tailored perfectly for a venue like Melkweg.
