Five Thirty was a three-piece rock band from London, England, briefly popular in the early 1990s. [1]
Originally performing in Oxford and Reading, Five Thirty moved to London and met drummer Phil Hopper.
The group formed initially in 1985 and performed in Oxford and Reading, recording their debut single, "Catcher in the Rye" that year as a two-piece (with Milton and Bassett). [2]
In 1990 they moved to London and met drummer Phil Hopper. They then signed to Atco/East West and released four minor hit singles and one album in 1990-91, but disbanded the year after. They also contributed a cover version of "My Sweet Lord" to the anti-poll tax album Alvin Lives (in Leeds). Hopper went on to a career in acting, while Milton formed The Nubiles and Bassett played with Orange Deluxe later in the decade.
