David Yarritu Born USA Origin United States Genres Rock, New Wave Occupations Musician, Photographer Instruments Spoken word Years active 1985 - present Labels Mercury Records Associated acts ABC David Yarritu is an American musician and photographer. He was best known for his short stint as a member of new wave group ABC in the 1980s. He was featured in several videos from the band's How to Be a...Zillionaire! album, including "Be Near Me" (1985).
Yarritu's only credited role in the production of How to Be a...Zillionaire! was providing spoken passages on some tracks. He and Eden (Fiona Russell) were hired for ABC's "Zillionaire!" era mainly for their unconventional look onstage and in videos. In Yarritu's case, it was his short stature, shaven head, oversized eyeglasses, and diminutive build. He was the lone American in the group.
Today Yarritu works as a freelance photographer, and is based in New York City.
