Tyler of Youth Fountain joins OurSpace with Matt Vettese for a brutally honest conversation about the evolution of Youth Fountain from solo project, to duo, and back to being fully independent.

We talk about the early days of writing songs alone, the shift after Cody left for Real Friends, what it’s like building Youth Fountain as a solo artist, and the reality of writing, recording, and performing everything yourself.

Tyler also opens up about leaving Pure Noise Records, burnout, fan messages that keep him going, creating content as an independent artist, and what fans can expect from the next Youth Fountain album.

If you’re into emo, pop punk, sad songs, DIY artists, Real Friends, The Story So Far, Arm’s Length, Dashboard Confessional, or modern pop punk, this one’s for you.
