Liberty X

Liberty X were formed in 2001, after they were not chosen for the official 'Popstars' group, who later became Hear'Say. Michelle, Kevin, Tony, Kelly and Jessica were part of a brand new group called Liberty. Their first single 'Thinking It Over' cracked the UK Top 5, surprising fans and sceptics alike, who thought that Liberty was even going to struggle to obtain a Top 40 placing in the UK singles chart. A second single was quickly planned, which materialized into 'Doin' It'. 'Doin' It' did not chart as well as their debut, making a modest impact at #14.

The May Birds

The May Birds began with the Ella and Alice, the guitarist and singer. We always knew what kind of music we wanted to make and although we loved the simplicity of just guitar and vocals we wanted to bring more depth and texture to the songs. So we found Camilla the pianist and then Charlotte the cellist. We've spent the last 9 months writing recording and are now beginning to play more live. We played at a club in Soho called Blacks and have been invited back to play on a regular basis.
