AY Young stands at the forefront of the intersection between entertainment and global sustainability. As a producer, singer, songwriter, and entrepreneur, he has electrified the music scene with over 900 concerts powered entirely by renewable energy through his pioneering initiative, the Battery Tour. This concert series not only entertains but actively funds, promotes, and deploys sustainable energy solutions to communities in need worldwide.

Recognized as one of the 17 United Nations Youth Leaders for Sustainable Development Goals, AY’s influence extends beyond the music industry. He performed at President Biden’s inauguration, marking a significant highlight in his career dedicated to advocacy and change. AY is currently channeling his passion for sustainability into “Project 17,” an ambitious album created in collaboration with some of the Earth’s most influential artists. Each of the 17 tracks in the album is dedicated to one of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals, featuring guest performances from renowned artists and backed by corporate sponsors like General Motors, Samsung, and BNP Paribas, who are committed to these global objectives.

Proceeds from “Project 17” are dedicated to advancing the SDGs, with funds supporting various NGOs committed to these goals. AY’s commitment to change is palpable not only in his music but in his active engagement with global audiences, pushing for a sustainable future through every note he plays.
