“Persistence” – is it really a positive and grand word? Living a life in a hectic and tempting era, most of us may nod our head to this question. The independent musician Jiayun YU, on the other hand, thinks the opposite. He shares with us that “only when the external expectations from others are transformed into inner motivation can we step forward in our field and that is how hobbies work.” Graduating from Berkley College of Music, this talented singer and producer charms the audience with his own experience and thoughts.

他被戏称为"吃了夹心棉花糖"长大的人。
人之初，刚落草。
带着天真与草莽气的男孩，没有粉丝打榜站台，却凭借娓娓一曲《我想》，领跑了当月的网易原创音乐榜。
2018年，没有经纪公司的他从南至北，巡演十城。场场票房售罄，听众逾万人。
然而，如此细腻斑斓的音乐神经，却源自一片黑白视界。棉花糖的夹心里，当真是一味苦涩的药？
在这个倏忽而至的冬天，来这里。听他唱一段，黑白与斑斓的旧事。
