Yvette Young has skyrocketed to guitar stardom in the last few years, not only as the lead for math rockers Covet, but also through touring her electrifying solo shows. Young's stunning melodic riffs — inspired by emo, indie and post-rock — are the rare guitar part you can sing along to at the gig. 
 
In this new On The Record interview, Yvette shares her thoughts on what makes the best solo and best guitar, her iconic tapping technique, why guitarists should all learn piano, and why she's obsessed with making a guitar not sound like a guitar!
