Pay the Girl is a rock band from Cincinnati, Ohio.
Lead singer Jason Allen Phelps first started performing in local venues in the Cincinnati area in the late 1990s, and decided to form a band in 2001.
The group put out a demo EP soon after, which resulted in their signing with TVT Records in 2002, who landed a song of theirs, "Clueless", on the soundtrack to Swimfan.
Later in 2002, the band opened for Shakira on her worldwide tour.
[1] TVT released their self-titled debut album in 2003, and the song "Freeze" peaked at #21 on the Billboard Adult Top 40 chart that same year.
