Yellow Days Returns to Miami with His Rock and a Hard Place Tour

When George van den Broek first picked up a guitar at age 11, it was likely just another Christmas present, but that moment in his home in Haslemere, England, set in motion a musical journey few could have predicted. Teaching himself guitar, bass, keys, and drums, he was never content to be just another aspiring teen in a small town. He wanted music that was truly felt and deeply lived.

Now performing under the name Yellow Days, van den Broek quickly developed a singular voice that fuses indie soul, blues melancholy, and the rhythm of classic R&B. His early releases, including the lo-fi EP “Harmless Melodies” and his debut album “Is Everything Okay in Your World?," introduced a young artist unafraid to wear his vulnerabilities openly. His voice carried both yearning and a sense of timeless soul that resonated far beyond his hometown.

What makes him stand out is not only his rich vocals, though those certainly made listeners take notice. It was the way he stitched personal experience into songs that felt immersive and grounded. Early tracks like “The Way Things Change” captured youthful uncertainty through mellow grooves and reflective lyrics, while “Gap in the Clouds” reached new audiences after being featured in the trailer for the second season of Atlanta.

Since then, his trajectory has continued upward. Yellow Days has toured internationally, bringing his introspective, compelling sound to festival stages across Europe and North America. With each project, his craft has widened. Fans gravitate toward standout tracks like “A Little While,” “Special Kind Of Woman,” and “Your Hand Holding Mine,” songs that highlight his evolution as an artist while preserving the foundation that first defined him.

His latest album, "Rock and a Hard Place," really shows how far he’s come as a songwriter and performer. The songs have this laid-back, soulful energy that makes it the perfect record to play on a late-night drive down Biscayne, windows down, music filling the car. On this record, he draws from swing, jazz, soul, and R&B in a way that feels less like genre-hopping and more like someone who's genuinely obsessed with the history of great music. You can hear Ray Charles in there, a little Scott Walker, some of that raw Lennon energy, but it never feels like imitation. Every track has its own personality, yet the album comes together as a warm, immersive journey that invites you to just sit back and get lost in it.

He's bringing the Rock and a Hard Place Tour to ZeyZey Miami on March 12th, with LA-based artist Rue Jacobs opening the night. Jacobs blends soul and jazz with a cinematic, atmospheric quality that should set the tone perfectly. ZeyZey, tucked into Little Haiti, is the kind of intimate outdoor space where this type of music actually lands the way it's supposed to. Doors open at 8 PM, and the show is 18+.
