A person I admire

Thom Yorke is a famous English singer, and the leader of my second-favorite band: Radiohead, he is known for his particular falsetto vocals. Also he is a multi-instrumentalist (he plays the guitar, piano, bass and also drums) and he writes his own songs. He is very talented.

He started at the age of seven in the musical word, whe he had his first guitar. And in school he met the members of his first band, which was called “On a Friday”, because they only could practice these day.  After that he studied fine arts in Exeter University but he continued with his band. In 1992 they changed the band name to “Radiohead”, and they started to get noticed whit their song “Creep”

Apart from Radiohead, Thom has many of solo works and a second band, called Atoms for Peace with members of another recognized bands.

Another thing I like about him is that he is vegetarian and he practices yoga.

As you see, Thom Yorke is a very versatile person because, apart of his musical career, he is an activist on behalf of human rights, environmentalist and anti-war causes. He is constantly criticizing the global warming, politics, economic problems and also the musical industry. Many of his songs are inspired on these topics.
