Riskee And The Ridicule Return With A Unique Take On Lana Del Rey’s ‘Young And Beautiful’

Riskee And The Ridicule return with their own unique take on New York Pop Singer-Songwriter Lana Del Rey’s award-winning 2013 smash-hit ‘Young And Beautiful’. This, however, is no guilty pleasure for the band, who are longtime fans of Lana’s work.

“Lana Del Rey is one of Pop music’s best storytellers” states frontman Scott Picking before adding ”There’s something about her music that is so intense and descriptive that it’s movie-like and in these times of being locked down, that type of escapism has been a personal paradise. In choosing this song, I knew I could bring something different vocally and musically, we were excited about changing the song dynamically while staying true to the emotiveness of the original.”

Despite being isolated from each other at the time, Riskee and The Ridicule were able to create a Video for ‘Young And Beautiful’ by recording their individual parts at home, allowing their former bassist David Thomas to collate them together with footage from one of the bands early hometown gigs.

”The Video feels like a nod to both our early days as a band, just us and our own motivation, as well as where we are all at in this unique moment, one that we’re not likely to be in again any time soon (hopefully)” confesses Scott.
