The Ting Tings are an English indie pop duo composed of Jules De Martino (drums, lead guitar, bass guitar, vocals and piano) and Katie White (vocals, guitar, bass drums, bass guitar and cow bells). They formed in December 2007 while based at Islington Mill Artist Studios in Salford, England.
The band was signed to independent record label Switchflicker Records in 2006 and released their limited-edition debut single, “Fruit Machine,” the following year. Following an appearance at the Glastonbury Festival in 2007, The Ting Tings were signed to Columbia Records.
The Ting Tings released their debut album “We Started Nothing” in May 2008. The album reached #1 on the United Kingdom Albums chart and was certified platinum by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI). It reached #78 on the Billboard 200 Albums chart and #8 on the Independent Albums chart. The group's third single, “That's Not My Name,” reached #1 on the U.K. Singles chart and reached the Top 40 of the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 Singles chart. “Shut Up and Let Me Go,” reached #1 on the Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart and was certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).
They were nominated for Best New Artist at the 2010 Grammy Awards. “Hands,” the first single from their as-of-yet untitled second studio album, was released in 2010. The song debuted at #29 on the U.K. Singles chart.
