Dieter Meier is a Swiss musician and conceptual artist. He is the frontman of the electronic music group Yello, which also includes music producer Boris Blank. He is the main vocalist and lyricist, as well as manager and producer of the group.
In the late 1970s Meier, already a millionaire industrialist and gambler, was brought in when the two founders of the Swiss electronic band Yello, Boris Blank and Carlos Perón, realised that they needed a singer. Perón left the band in 1983 to pursue a solo career, ultimately leaving Blank and Meier to record their most well known and commercially successful single “Oh Yeah,” in which Meier provided almost all vocals, backing vocals and lyrics. “Oh Yeah” went on to feature in numerous films and television episodes in the following decades including “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off,” “Something Wild,” and an episode of South Park, “Hell on Earth 2006.”
Along with Talking Heads vocalist David Byrne, Meier was a guest artist on the X-Press 2 album “Muzikizum.” He also performed lead vocals on the single “I Want You Back.”
