Which band was formed first Relient K or The Primitives?
Relient K Relient K is an American rock band formed in 1998 in Canton, Ohio, by Matt Thiessen, Matt Hoopes, and Brian Pittman during the band members' third year in high school and their time at Malone University. The band is named after guitarist Hoopes' automobile, a Plymouth Reliant K car, with the spelling intentionally altered to avoid trademark infringement over the "Reliant" name.
The Tornados The Tornados were an English instrumental group of the 1960s that acted as backing group for many of record producer Joe Meek's productions and also for singer Billy Fury. They enjoyed several chart hits in their own right, including the UK and U.S. no.1 "Telstar" (named after the satellite and composed and produced by Meek), the first U.S. #1 single by a British group. The Tornados (Dave Watts version) still perform concerts around the UK and Europe; the band consists of Dave Watts (keyboards), Shaun Corrigan on guitar for '60s band the Symbols ("The Best Part of Breaking Up"), Pete Gill on bass from '60s band The Rebounds, Jamie Thurston (vocals/guitar from ITV Heartbeat tour, "ITVtheRoyal") and Tristan Long on drums (performed with Gareth Gates, Deacon Blue, Midge Ure, SKIN, Halloween, Foundations, Fortunes, etc.).
