Yellow Wire
Lead single ‘Where Is The Summer’, released on August 23rd, perfectly showcases his unique style of melodic rock and is already being tipped to become a late-summer anthem.
The son of legendary Queen manager Jim Beach, Ol moved to Switzerland with his parents in 1990 and was educated at L’Ecole Nouvelle in Lausanne. Showing early signs of musicality, he studied for four years under Blue Note recording artist Thierry Lang at the Montreux Jazz Conservatoire.
In 2002 Ol formed the band Wire Daisies with singer Treana Morris. The band signed a worldwide publishing deal with EMI Music, recorded two albums, achieved number one iTunes tracks in the UK and France and toured extensively supporting artists including Starsailor and Robbie Williams. After parting ways with the group, Ol signed a recording deal with Swiss independent label id Records and began recording under the name Yellow Wire in 2009.
Alongside the music, Yellow Wire has also teamed up with acclaimed illustrator Jimmy Turrell (the man behind memorable imagery for Glastonbury Festival and the Prodigy) and renowned photographer Gabrielle Crawford to create stunning artwork for the project.
To mark the release of ‘Where Is The Summer’, key creative people from a variety of different artistic backgrounds have been brought together for a unique collaboration to celebrate ‘Your Summer’. Each contributor’s interpretation of the season will be displayed on Yellow Wire’s Facebook fan page, whether it’s art, music, pictures, text or video content.
With so many great things on the horizon for Yellow Wire, the release of ‘Where Is The Summer’ is just the start of a very exciting journey ahead.
