Born in Queens, New York, Brian Hyland sky rocketed to the top
of the charts in 1960 reaching #1 with the classic novelty song
"Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Yellow Polka Dot Bikini."
At the age of 17 his prolific career
was launched and the string of hit records and collaborations that
followed, spanning eleven years, speak for themselves.
1962 saw "Sealed With A Kiss," one of the most
memorable "summertime" ballads of our time, reach #3 in
both the U.S. and British charts. In addition, songs like "Ginny
Come Lately," and "The Joker Went Wild"
reached the top 20.
Brian's chart success continued throughout the 1960's but one of
his biggest records was yet to come. It was his collaboration with
long time friend, artist and producer Del Shannon that shot
Brian back to #3 in the nation with the soulful rocker, "Gypsy
Woman."
Recording
hit records for five different labels that ranged from novelty to
pop ballads, folk rock to country and soul, Brian's talent runs
deep and his silky smooth voice proved timeless. In addition to
his U.S. success, Brian's hit records traveled the world reaching
the top ten in The United Kingdom, parts of Europe, Australia and
all across Asia. In the U.S. and abroad, Brian continues to perform
for packed houses performing over 100 shows per year!
When he's not touring, Brian continues to write and record at his
home in California with his wife and writing partner Rosmari and
their son Bodi on the drums. "Brian Hyland's Greatest Hits,"
an 18 track CD is available on MCA records and he has just finished
a collection of new material entitled "Turquoise Moon,"
an independent release for CD/CS.
"...it's only rock 'n' roll... but we like it!!!
Look forward to Rockin' on!" - Brian Hyland
