Brian Harvey

As business lead singer of East 17, Take That’s closest ’90s young man band competitors, Brian Harvey’s unquestionable vocal skills were frequently overshadowed by his tabloid-baiting and controversial extracurricular actions. Given birth to in Walthamstow, London in 1974, Harvey was originally designed to be a support vocalist/dancer for East 17, a pop group focused around songwriter Tony Mortimer, until record business executives noticed him sing throughout a documenting session and marketed him to frontman position. The music group scored an extraordinary 16 Best 40 singles and three TOP albums, however in 1997 Harvey was sacked through the band carrying out a radio interview where he seemed to condone the usage of ecstasy, an impression that unsurprisingly triggered a mass media furor because of his predominantly teenager fan base. Nevertheless, a season afterwards, he rejoined the music group, minus Mortimer, beneath the rebranded name of E-17, but regardless of the achievement of number 2 lead one “EACH AND EVERY TIME,” its mother or father album flopped as well as the trio was lowered by its Telstar label. After offering visitor vocals for garage area duo Accurate Steppers’ strike “True Stage Tonight,” he authorized a cope with Edel Information and obtained two Best 30 entries with “DIRECTLY (No Bends)” as well as the Wyclef Jean-produced “Caring You (Ole Ole Ole),” but his debut recording, Single, wasn’t released. In 2004, he made an appearance on jungle fact display I’m a Superstar…Get Me From Here!, along with a 12 months later almost passed away carrying out a bizarre incident where he got smashed under the tires of his personal car. After reuniting with East 17’s John Hendy and Terry Coldwell for some golf club PAs, he dropped out to Scooch within the search to get the U.K. access for the 2007 Eurovision Track Contest, and this year 2010 he resumed his single career using the track “Heading Backwardz.”
