Perfect Dream

Troy Young’s debut CD, Perfect Dream, is a riveting combination of light rock and new age country. A poignant collection of true to the heart songs, Perfect Dream contrasts the soul haunting sound of Safe Here With Me and World Away, with the fresh and flavourful sound of Drives Me Wild and Anything for You. Born and raised in the small town of Sydney Mines, Cape Breton, Troy’s music is strongly influenced by other east coast artists like Gordie Sampson, Jimmy Rankin and Bruce Gouthro. Produced under the direction of Fred Lavery at award winning Lakewind Sound Studios, Perfect Dream includes eleven original tracks and a stellar cast of musicians.

A relative newcomer to the music scene, Troy’s arrival seems to have come from nowhere. Rest assured though, his background is music laden. While Troy’s father and brother played in local bands, Troy was more of a hidden talent who only recently chose to showcase his remarkable abilities. Writing musical arrangements has been a hobby of sorts to Troy for most of his life, but it has just been in the past few years that the words have started to fall into place. And how easily they fell. Reaching into his past experiences and reflecting on the reality of the world around him, Troy has created musical poetry that has already touched the depths of his listener’s souls. Perfect Dream is sure to captivate you and leave you yearning for more.
