Graham Thomas Bell, born on April 17, 1948, in Blyth, Northumberland, was an English pop and rock singer. Bell began his career by releasing the single “(How Do You Say) I Don't Love You Anymore” in 1966. In 1967, he replaced Alan Hull as the lead vocalist of the psychedelic rock band Skip Bifferty, which was later renamed Heavy Jelly, and in 1969, performed with the psychedelic rock band Griffin. In 1970, he joined the band Every Which Way as its lead singer and principal songwriter, releasing a self-titled album on Charisma Records. He subsequently rejoined his former bandmates from Skip Bifferty to form Bell & Arc, releasing the album Bell + Arc in 1971. Bell left the group to record his self-titled debut solo album, Graham Bell (1972), which featured musicians such as Tim Hinkley and Mel Collins under the production of Bob Johnston. In the late 1970s, he moved to the United States, where he toured with Long John Baldry and co-fronted the band of British expatriates known as the Tea Bags. After returning to England, he joined Snowy White's Blues Agency, performing on the albums Change My Life (1988) and Open for Business (1989). Bell died of cancer on May 2, 2008, in London.
