Yelpy was born in Dublin, Ireland and has been playing music and writing songs since he was 15 years old. On his 15th birthday his dad bought him his first guitar. Until that moment Yelpy had never given music much thought, but little did he know that music would become his one true passion.

Yelpy played that guitar every hour of every day and within a year had formed his first rock band "Awakened". Awakened played quite a lot together all through Yelpy's school years. After school Yelpy went on to attended Europe's famous Rock School in Ballyfermot, Dublin. It was there he formed his next band "Whover" (pronounced WHO-VER). Whover toured all over Ireland, playing on TV and radio. They enjoyed much success including two hit singles. Later Yelpy would form a band with his two sisters called "Yellow Room". Again playing all over Ireland as well as appearing on TV and radio. They played with some of Ireland's greatest talent such as John Spillane, Brian Downey, Maria Doyle Kennedy, The Revs, Mickey Joe Heart, Liam O'Maonlai and many more. They also released two albums "Outside" and the self-titled "Yellow Room". After the second album Yelpy decided it was time to pursue a solo career as a singer/songwriter and move to LA.

Yelpy has achieved such accolades as; 3 time Hollywood Music In Media Awards nominee for best production, best AAA song and best singer/songwriter, Sunset Film Festival- winner of best music video, Women's Independent Film Festival - winner of best music video, and a myriad other awards & nominations from LluviaFM, KCLR 96FM, The Blitz 92.6FM, LA Talk Radio and many more...
