Bryan Ferry CBE, an English singer-songwriter, was born on September 26, 1945. It has been said that his voice is an “elegant, alluring coo.” Ferry, who was up in a working-class household and majored in fine art, worked as a secondary school teacher before deciding to pursue a career in music.
He took on the roles of lead singer and primary songwriter when he started the rock band Roxy Music in 1970 in London with a small group of friends and acquaintances.
He worked as a paper boy when he was younger and spent his earnings on jazz recordings. He majored in fine painting from 1964 to 1968 at Newcastle University, where he also spent a year studying under Richard Hamilton.
In 1970, the Tate Gallery featured a few of his paintings. His peers included people like Nick de Ville and Tim Head. At the period, Ferry played in the bands the Banshees, City Blues, and the Gas Board, the latter of which featured two of his undergraduate mates, Graham Simpson and John Porter.
Later, in 1968, he continued to teach pottery and painting at Holland Park School while relocating to London to pursue a career in music.
