             Here’s the next group to make a splash on the music scene - mytown - from Dublin, Ireland!
             They’re Marc Sheehan, Paul Walker, Terry Daly and Danny O’Donoghue!

             The guys first got together in 1996 at the Digges Lane performing arts school in Dublin. At the
             time, Marc was a well-known choreographer, Paul was a former actor who’d appeared in Irish
             TV shows and films, and Terry was a graphic design student. After adding Danny, the youngest
             member, the group got together and began harmonizing and writing their own songs. Not only are
             they talented songwriters, the guys also play instruments!!! Marc and Terry play guitar, Paul
             plays the piano and Danny plays "absolutely everything"!

             Virginia, Philadelphia and England to do the recording! Terry says, "It took a while to record
             mainly because we wanted to get it right." The album has a variation of romantic ballads,
             mid-tempo grooves and fast street songs." The first hit and video off the album will be the dance
