Vocalists

The Resume

    (circa 1982- )
    Founded in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, Canada
    Members are Marvin Birt, Sean Kilbride, Paul MacAusland, David Rashed and Ronnie Switzer
    Known for their singles 'Black and Blue,' 'Bad Bad Boy' and 'Standing In Line'

Why they might be annoying:

    It took them three years before they got mainstream recognition.
    They went through two different drummers, before Sean joined the group.
    They severly handicapped their chances of earning a record contract with an American label, due to their agreement with the Canadian-based Attic Records.
    They failed to capitalize on the popularity of their debut album 'Bad Boy.'
    They initially planned to have Norwegian producer Bjorn Nessjo work on their sophomore album 'Nuthouse,' only to be unhappy with his work and opted to mix the album themselves.
    They went on an 11 year hiatus, prior to returning to performing.

Why they might not be annoying:

    They are the most successful music group to come from Prince Edward Island.
    They frequently performed around Atlantic Canada, prior to landing a record deal.
    They earned the Music PEI Lifetime Achievement Award (2014).
    They were able to release their song catalog in the United States, following the expiration of their contract with Attic Records.
    They kept the same lineup for the entirety of the band's mainstream run.
