Brian Hyland Biography
Brian Hyland (born November 12, 1943, in Woodhaven, Queens, New York) is an American pop recording artist who was successful during the early 1960s.
Although not known as a major force in the history of rock and roll, Hyland did record three notable songs before his pop music success declined after 1970. He was one of several young American teen idol recording artists whose clean-cut image and sound thrived in the early 1960s, prior to the stylistic changes brought about through the "British Invasion" led by The Beatles, and beginning in 1964.
In 1960, Hyland scored his first and biggest hit single, "Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Yellow Polka Dot Bikini". The song was a smash hit, reaching Number one on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. Hyland's other well-known hit during this period was 1962's "Sealed With a Kiss", an eventual oldies radio standard that reached #3 on both the American and UK Singles Chart, and remained on the U.S. chart for eleven weeks. In 1975, "Sealed With a Kiss" was reissued as a single in the UK, and became a surprise #7 hit (the song was later revived by Jason Donovan who scored a #1 hit with it in 1989). Another 1962 hit was "Ginny Come Lately," which reached #21 on the U.S. chart and #5 in the UK.
As of 2006, Brian Hyland continues to tour internationally, with his son, Bodi, assisting on drums from time to time.
