Wes Nelson has released new pop-infused single ‘Yellow’.

The chart-topping singer-songwriter dropped the track following widespread demand on social media.

‘Yellow’ draws inspiration from a pivotal moment in the artist’s life – his first date with his girlfriend at a Coldplay concert.

“This is one of the most personal songs I’ve ever written,” says Wes. “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.”

Wes Nelson has amassed over 1.3 billion global streams and delivered hit singles across 10 countries.

His path to stardom however has been anything but ordinary. Despite balancing a promising football career, Muay Thai kickboxing, and a role as a Nuclear System Design Engineer, it was his passion for music that always shone brightest.

His debut single, ‘See Nobody,’ featuring Hardy Caprio, achieved UK platinum status and peaked at No.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 No.1 and recent single ‘Barcelona’, created with production duo Billen Ted, reimagined an early 2000s classic and further demonstrated his versatility as an artist.

“Music is the only thing that really resonated,” Wes reflects. “This is not a passion project, a whim, or a gimmick. I’m in this for the long haul.”
