Easyworld

Easyworld were an English indie alternative rock/pop band hailing from Eastbourne, consisting of David Ford on vocals, Jo Taylor on bass and Glenn Hooper on drums, active between 1997 and 2004.

After recording a few rough demos and an unreleased album, the trio re-christened the band 'Easyworld', after a lyric in their song "Better Ways To Self Destruct".

The band signed to Fierce Panda and released their debut E.P., also titled Better Ways to Self Destruct even though it did not feature the song of that name, in 2001.

The band signed to Jive Records in the fall of 2001[1] and released two albums, This Is Where I Stand and Kill the Last Romantic before splitting in 2004.

However, BMG were not too keen on the band's commercial position and were due to drop them, which later prompted their split, which was revealed to Ford, when he wrote a letter to them saying he was not happy and wanted the contract cancelled.
