The fabulous Tracy Young is a prolific, award-winning DeeJay, music producer, remixer, and composer. She has officially remixed for well over 100 musical artists, and has racked up over 60 No.1 Billboard Dance Club Chart hits, including 14 exclusively for Madonna. The “I Rise (Tracy Young Pride Intro Radio Remix)” for Madonna won the Grammy Award for Best Remixed Recording in 2020, marking the first time a female producer/remixer has ever been nominated and won in that category since its inception in 1998. She also owns Ferosh Records. She actively supports philanthropic causes and has held fundraising campaigns for various LGBTQ+ charities, and has been a featured talent for Pride Festivals all around the world since 1990.

Young was born in Virginia and began DeeJaying at frat parties when she was at the University of Maryland. She graduated with a degree in Speech Communication, and began her music career working as a Mix Show DJ for WPGC 95.5 in Washington in the early 1990s. She worked her way up to Music Director, before moving to Miami where she became the Southeast Regional Promotions Director for Interscope Records. She thrived as a club DJ, becoming a celebrity favourite on South Beach, particularly with her residency at Liquid. But it was when she met Madonna that her production career really soared. And since then she has remixed 14 tracks to date for the iconic musician, including Music, Hung Up, 4 Minutes, and, of course, the Grammy Award-winner, I Rise. She is also a familiar face on reality TV, having appeared in such shows as Dancing with the Stars, House of Style, The Real Housewives of Atlanta, and Sisqó’s Shakedown.

Young regularly connects with her legions of followers and fans through Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter, posting pictures and videos of her life around music. She has a YouTube channel, Tracy Young, a Twitch.tv channel, and an official website, tracyyoung.com.
