Artist History Meltdown Yellow began with the longtime guitar and bass combination of Chris Williams and Jeremy Harper. The duo hooked up with singer/songwriter Paul Leary in June of 2001 and the trio immediately went to work on a collection of original, hard rock material. With a collection of hard-hitting tunes ready to go, the band began auditioning for a drummer. New York native Eric Kelly answered the call in July of 2002 and the lineup was complete. Within a month, Meltdown Yellow was in the studio to record their first demo.

Group Members Paul Leary: vocals Chris Williams: guitar Jeremy Harper: bass Eric Kelly: drums

Press Reviews Meltdown yellow is one of the best new rock bands that I have had the pleasure of hearing. Tight guitar riffs, great rhythm and excellent vocals are all part of the Meltdown yellow package. Their website explains "Meltdown Yellow’s music is best described as high energy, hard-hitting guitar rock with strong melodies and a punchy backbeat.” which, IMO, describes them perfectly. Watch for their CD which I hope is going to be released soon but for now, surf over to their website for some great tunes. CarolinaMusic.net - Volume VI, March 2003
