M.O was formed in late 2012, after Connolly had met Samuels and Ashcroft at music industry events. The group's name originated from Drake’s "The Motto", which features the line "That’s my M.O add a B to that", and is short for Modus Operandi. M.O's initial aim was to bring old school 90s music back, naming J.Lo and TLC as an inspiration amongst others.〔 M.O made their debut as a band with a remix of Brandy and Monica's "The Boy Is Mine" on the YouTube channel SB.TV in 2012. At this point they received positive feedback from the music industry and were championed by the likes of Ed Sheeran. They followed up their debut on YouTube with their first promotional single "Wait Your Turn", which was followed by other releases in 2013, including "Ain’t Got Time" and "Hot". In 2014 they announced that the Jess Glynne co-written track "For A Minute" would be the debut single from their forthcoming album, which is expected to be released in 2015.〔 "For A Minute" was released in April 2014 and entered the UK Indie Charts at number 6.〔 In May 2014 they joined Little Mix as the main support act on their sold out Salute Tour, and performed at numerous festivals in the UK, including Wireless festival. In August 2014 they released their second single „Dance On My Own“, which entered the Official Singles Sales Chart at number 49, making it M.O's most successful single to date.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=https://twitter.com/BBCR1/status/502125447782891520 )〕 The group was nominated for a MOBO award in the Best Newcomer category in 2014.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.mobo.com/voting/best-newcomer )〕 The single "Preach", which was co-written by Starsmith and Joel Compass, was released in May 2015.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.thefader.com/2015/03/17/mo-get-uplifting-in-their-video-for-preach )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「M.O (group)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
