Young and Restless (sometimes abbreviated to Y + R or Y & R) were a band from Canberra, Australia. ==Biography== Young and Restless were formed in 2005, and won the 2006 Triple J Unearthed competition to play at the Homebake Festival 2006.〔(triple j Unearthed )〕 The band formed in early 2005 when Karina Utomo and Ash Pegram (who were old high school buddies) combined with Ross Paxman, Mark Falkland and Nugie Utomo. Early names of the band were '...Wolves' and then 'The I Hate Yous' before settling on the current name. They started playing shows in Canberra before slowly playing interstate shows. They recorded initial demos in Canberra before recording their first single "Satan" with Christopher Colonna from past Unearthed winners The Bumblebeez. The track was given to James Ford from Simian Mobile Disco to mix and master and the result was sent off to radio, blogs and industry people. Triple J quickly caught on to the single, giving it considerable airplay. Split-based between Canberra and Melbourne since 2007, they have played with the likes of The Mint Chicks, Erase Errata, Suicide Girls, Die! Die! Die! and Cansei de Ser Sexy. It was announced in August 2007 that founding members Mark Falkland and Ash Pegram would be leaving the band. In November 2007, the band took the QANTAS Spirit of Youth Award in the music category, the prize included a mentorship with legendary music producer Nick Launay. Other finalists in the category included Mercy Arms and Bridezilla. In December 2007 the band were announced as winners of the inaugural 2007 Unearthed J Award. In 2008, Josh Weller was announced as the new guitarist. On 17 August 2009, the band posted a blog on their MySpace stating that the band would be breaking up. Young And Restless played their final show on 21 August at the Arthouse in Melbourne. Karina Utomo and Ash Pegram are now in High Tension, a new outfit also featuring members of The Nation Blue. 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「Young and Restless (Australian band)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
