The Manchester-based self-proclaimed Garage-Pop duo The Ting Tings, was
formed in Salford, Lancashire ENGLAND, in 2006, after several years of
false starts in the music scene, by singer+guitarist Katie White and drummer
Jules De Martino; they were in a previous band together, Dear Eskiimo.
White and De Martino met when Katie was just out of being a Wigan school-girl
and bonded over a shared ambition to rock the foundations of Pop music.
The pair have now successfully reinvented themselves and become one of
the most credible and critically-acclaimed groups on the indie scene.
The Ting Tings' first U.K. Top 40 single, "Great DJ", was follwed
by the the #1 smash "That's Not My Name". Their first full-length
disc, "We Started Nothing", which equaled the peak position
of the second single on the British Albums chart, was released in May
2008. It also includes "Shut Up And Let Me Go", the song used
on the 2008 iPod commercial.
