911 Biography

911

British pop phenoms 911 ("nine one one") will soon be a fixture on radio dials here in the U.S. Sporting a distinctive blend of vocal talent and roguish charm, the three young lads in 911 have rocketed to #10 on the UK charts with their first Virgin single, "Don't Make Me Wait," amidst growing hysteria throughout Britain. The rabid fan response has earned the members of 911 numerous nationally broadcast UK television appearances, while their UK fan club has grown to over 25,000 members. The trio's tours have caused havoc as screaming fans even try to pull band members Lee, Spike and Jimmy into the audience. Now the boys embark on a worldwide campaign.

Meet 911:

23-year-old Jimmy Constable, an admitted hopeless romantic, who grew up wanting to play soccer for his hometown Liverpool team before surrendering to his love of music.

Simon "Spike" Dawbarn, a mischievous 22-year-old soccer fanatic from the Manchester area, who has a passion for french fries, beans, pizza, and television comedy.

Lee Brennan, who met Jimmy and Spike at a roadshow, convinced them to let him join the band, and 911 was born. In his spare time, this 21-year-old from Carlisle likes to "read fan mail, write lyrics and try to remember what you're meant to do on a day off."

911's youthful exuberance and talent has already propelled them to huge success in their UK homeland. The first U.S. single "Love Sensation" is the featured song in the movie "Casper 2 -- A Spirited Beginning." The group will release its debut full-length album in 1998. Until then, "Love Sensation" provides the perfect introduction to Britain's newest pop export. So keep the number handy!

Connie's Opinion

Most people have never heard of 911. In fact, I had never heard of them until I went on my trip to Asia. Apparently, they are very popular there as well as in the UK. But, they sing really well! I love them!!!!!!!! They are da bomb! So check them out and see for yourself!
