p/s: Not many have heard of such unusual band name - The Ting Tings, but the unique stand out name sure has its own particular reason. Believe it or not, "That's Not My Name" was charted straight at the #1 spot on the UK countdown on May 18th. Their album - We Started Nothing, too, debut at #1 spot in the UK. Unfortunately, not much hype had come from that side of the world ever since that break. The Ting Tings consist of two member. Jules De Martino (drums, guitar, vocals) and Katie White (vocals, guitar, bass drum). Their music resembles the likes of the legendary The Beatles & British breakout rock band - Muse. It's not recommended for everyone as some might find it irritating, but definitely check those awesome tracks out! Their recent world tour - which covers country such as Japan, US, France, Netherlands, Spain, Italy, Ireland, Scotland - had wooed in millions of followers with their music! That's quite a feet, really. The Ting Tings' soulofindie first artist introduction from the British market. Also, the first indie band and there's definitely a reason why we picked them out of the many!
