Wes Nelson has released his heartfelt new single ‘Yellow', which tells the story of meeting the love of his life.
Following fan demand on social media, Nelson has decided to release the joyful track in full to kick off the New Year. The song draws from Nelson's first date with his girlfriend, which took place at a Coldplay concert.
“This is one of the most personal songs I've ever written,” says Nelson of the brand new single. “Some of my past relationships have been in the public eye and on social media, but this one I've kept private. This song is the first and only time I’ll be sharing a glimpse of it. I finished writing it just before my UK tour, posted some clips online, and people were singing it back word for word at every show, which blew my mind. I can't wait to get it out there and for everyone to hear the final version.”
Nelson's path to stardom has been anything but ordinary. Before captivating audiences as a musician, he balanced a promising football career, Muay Thai kickboxing, and a role as a Nuclear System Design Engineer. Despite his success in these areas, his passion for music always shone brightest.
Nelson's debut single, ‘See Nobody,' featuring Hardy Caprio, achieved UK platinum status and peaked at #3 on the UK charts. Subsequent collaborations with artists such as Yxng Bane (‘Nice To Meet Ya') and Clean Bandit (‘Drive') garnered hundreds of millions of streams and charted internationally. ‘Abracadabra’ with Craig David was a big Top 40 number 1 earlier this year and recent single ‘Barcelona‘, created with production duo Billen Ted, reimagined an early 2000s classic and further demonstrated his versatility as an artist.
