The saturdays - what about us

The Saturdays are a pop group formed in the United Kingdom in 2007, comprising Una Healy, Mollie King, Frankie Sandford, Vanessa White and Rochelle Wiseman. Songfacts reports that they decided on calling themselves 'The Saturdays' as it sounded fun and different to the other girl bands. They didn't want the name to reference their gender, like Girls Aloud, Spice Girls, or Sugababes.

The Saturdays made their recording debut in 2007 under the record label Fascination Records, a sub-division of Polydor Records. Their debut album, Chasing Lights, produced five UK Top 25 singles. The band embarked on their first headlining UK tour, called 'The Work Tour', in June 2009.

Their first single, titled If This Is Love was released on 28th July 2008 and entered the UK chart at #8 where it peaked. It reached #33 on the Eurochart Hot 100 singles. The single's sold around 90,000 copies to date. The second single, Up, was released on 13 October 2008. It debuted on the UK singles chart at #5, where it peaked, #11 on the Irish singles chart and #15 on the Eurochart Ho

The British/Irish girl band released their debut album “Chasing Lights” in 2008. They toured with Girls Aloud on their “Tangled Up” tour before going on their own UK tour called “The Work Tour”.They quickly made a name for themselves as ones to watch after only a year of being in the band together! Not only are they known for their danceable tunes and energetic stage presence, their eye-catching style and love of bright colours make them pop music style icons in the making!
