O-Town
Some Boy Bands or bands used to deny the fact that they have been put together through auditions. We don�t know why because it�s not a bad thing. Unlike Lance from �N sync said, they are a real band anyway. O-Town are not afraid or shy to say that they have been put together as a band through auditions. Some other bands have often said bad things about them but they don�t take it too seriously. Maybe these other bands are just jealous: O-Town is the first band to have such and amazing debut. They sold so many of their self-titled debut CD on the first week it has been released, it�s almost unbelievable! The band confess that without Making the Band, nothing would have been possible, but I think somehow someone would have discovered their talent and they would be as popular as they are actually (just after a little more time maybe). Their CD is totally perfect: wonderful songs, nice lyrics, good voices, perfect harmonies, a style and a flavor that no other band ever had! O-Town is not like every boy band, everyone could agree with that.

One thing that is great about them is the way they treat their fans. They always take some of their time for us and they respect us so much because they know that without us they wouldn�t be there. They stay grounded even when they see how popular they are growing. After the 22 suc-cessful episodes of Making the Band, they decided to release a second season of their hit series. We already saw the first 4 episodes and we can�t wait to see the next ones when the show will be back on June 8th 2001...

Millions of young music fans tuned into the reality TV show "Making of the Band" to watch the rising pop quintet O-Town unite and evolve piece by piece. A breakthrough concept in music and television, the show allowed the public to witness the careers of five young musicians come to life. The talented bunch - made up of Ashley Parker Angel, Erik-Michael Estrada, Dan Miller, Trevor Penick, and Jacob Underwood- endured months of sharpening their skills to become the most anticipated, most watched new musical group.

But now, as a climactic grand finale to their first season as both music and TV stars, O-Town has inked a record deal with the legendary Clive Davis and J Records. The group's scorching debut, "Liquid Dreams," is now making its way to the airwaves and will be released in record stores na-tion-wide on December 5th.

With a legion of fans already in place, the group embarked on a 40-city, major market radio tour of the U.S. where they impressed station personnel with their live, a cappella version of "All For Love," a song from the television show. Throughout the tour, the group's notoriety built as fans flocked to their media interviews and personal appearances.

Recently, O-Town filmed the video for "Liquid Dreams" with acclaimed director Dave Meyers (Britney, Pink, Outkast). The group is currently in the studio putting the finishing touches on their full-length debut album, which is set for release in late January 2001.

"Making the Band", which first premiered in late March, has been renewed for a new season to begin in early 2001. It is executive produced by Lou Pearlman (*NSync, Backstreet Boys), Ken Mok at MTV Productions and Mary-Ellis Bunim and Jonathan Murray at Bunim/Murray Produc-tions ("The Real World," "Road Rules"). �
