Hello Beautiful

Hello Beautiful originally formed in 2006, when vocalist/guitarist Cole Martin and guitarist Buddy Taylor, who met at the same high school in Whitby, Ontario decided to form a band. Honing their captivating songwriting and attracting drummer Kevin Walsh, as well as bassist Dan Bradimore, they recorded a few independent recordings. The songs from those recordings managed to reach the attention of a few local labels, and even more so when they started winning every single battle of the bands competition that they entered. There was interest, but there was no instant gratification and after paying many dues in indie punk/hip hop obscurity and many repeated cycles through the east-end club circuit, the M.C. who had come on board providing somewhat of a Hip Hop edge, decided to leave. Charlie Royal, a talented local M.C. who had already heard of their daring style and prowess, decided to get in touch with the band when they sent out a call for auditions. With a brand new chemistry, a new authentic Hip Hop addition, along with their previous knack for crafting memorable songs and danceable, driving rhythms, Hello Beautiful recorded a six-song E.P. in December of 2006 that they self-titled. This recording gave Hello Beautiful a large and loyal following, and they have never looked back, gaining valuable experience as well as a vicious momentum and popularity that keeps on 'snowballing'. Their live show always whips the audience into a frenzy, and as one journalist described them, "...Hello Beautiful is more than a band; they are the epitome of an immovable object hitting an unstoppable force". * Cole Martin (guitar / lead vocals) * Charlie Royal (MC) * Dan Bradimore (bass / backing vocals) *Darrell Wallace (lead guitar) * Kevin Walsh (drums / backing vocals)
