Biography
The Fourmost, a British Merseybeat band, formed in Liverpool, England. The group was founded by guitarist/vocalist Brian O'Hara and Joey Bower in 1957 as the Two Jays. They changed their name to the Fourmost in October 1962 after several lineup changes and their breakthrough came when they signed a management contract with Brian Epstein on June 30, 1963, leading to an audition by George Martin and subsequent signing to EMI's Parlophone record label. The Fourmost released their first single "Hello Little Girl" written by John Lennon in August 1963, which reached number 9 in the UK Singles Chart. Their follow-up single "I'm in Love" (LennonâMcCartney) was released on November 15, 1963 and reached number 17 in the UK. The band's biggest hit, "A Little Loving", written by Russ Alquist, peaked at number 6 in mid-1964. Their only album from the 1960s, First And Fourmost, was released in September 1965 and included covers of various artists. The band faced personnel changes with Mike Millward's death in early 1966, followed by George Peckham joining as his replacement. In 1980, Hatton, Lovelady, and Bower left the group while O'Hara continued with new members. In 2018, the Fourmost completed an extensive tour with other artists from their decade.
