Terry Coldwell, John Hendy, Brian Harvey and Tony Mortimer formed boyband East 17 in the early 90s in London.

East 17 is a British boy band that was a kind of proletarian antidote to Take That. In the 1990s they were extremely successful.

They were named after its origin, the East End of London and the zip code for Walthamstow, and had in the UK, Germany and other European countries, a number of hits including House of Love (1992), It's Alright (1994), Stay Another Day (1994) Thunder (1995) and If You Ever (1996) - a duet with the singer Gabrielle.

After a scandal over drug abuse by singer Brian Harvey, the group's career and reputation tarnished by the affair. Harvey was fired and Mortimer decided to leave several months later, due to creative differences between himself and the rest of the group. The band's split in 1997.

Under the name E-17, the boy band attempted a comeback in 1998, however, they were unable to repeat earlier success.

The band has come back several times since, changing line-ups with very little success.

Terry Coldwell, John Hendy, Brian Harvey and Tony Mortimer formed boyband East 17 in the early 90s in London.
