Younger Younger 28's History

The Younger Younger 28's formed in January 1998, then consisting of Jimmy D (the G.I. was added later) and Joe Northern, both ex-members of the band B.L.O.W.

After some demo's playing punk songs they decided they both much preferred pop music.  They also needed some female singers, Andie and Liz, both of whom were recruited from the Academy of Contemporary Music where Jimmy's brother, Bruce, works.

It was Jimmy's decision not to have a drummer and bassist, his years of experience in the industry lead to the verdict that they "would just get in the way" as well as "take up loads of room in the van".  

With the foursome together they wrote some pop songs, and signed to V2 Records in December 1998.

1999 was spent recording and touring.  The band appeared at several festivals through Summer, and held their own Asda supermarket tour, before supporting My Life Story on their tour in the Autumn.
