Biography
Yuill released his first album, The Vanilla Disc, on his own Happy Biscuit Club label in 2005.[2] After releasing his second album, entitled Turning Down Water for Air, in February 2007, he was later signed by Moshi Moshi. Moshi Moshi re-issued the album in January 2009. Turning Down Water for Air was described by Clash as "a startling piece of work".[3] He has been described as "a one-man band armed with a laptop, mixing decks and an acoustic guitar".[4] His popularity grew internationally and he was signed by the Nettwerk Music Group in the United States in 2008.[2]
Yuill also works as a remixer and has provided remixes for Tilly & the Wall, The Answering Machine, Au Revoir Simone, and David Holmes.[2][5][6][7] He has also collaborated with Charlie Westropp under the pseudonym Hunger/Thirst.
In 2010, he produced a version of "Jingle Bells" for a Guinness commercial, using pint glasses containing varying levels of Guinness to create the tune.[8]
In 2013, after a successful campaign on PledgeMusic, he released his fourth studio album called "These Spirits" on his Happy Biscuit Club label. Yuill's fifth album A Change In State was released in July 2017.
