[1] Prior to creating Young Love, Dan Keyes fronted the Austin, Texas post-hardcore band Recover with much help from Rory Phillips.
At the end of 2005 Island Records signed the musician, and by summer 2006, Keyes and his band, now known as Young Love, were performing with Stolen Transmission at Annex in New York City.
[3] In mid-July, a live video of Keyes performing the song "We Want Drugs" acoustic was released on YouTube.
In addition, the single will serve as the theme song for the network's Jennifer Lopez-produced reality series, DanceLife, which premiered January 15, 2007.
In February 2007, the band toured with better known artists, playing shows with several different acts including Head Automatica, Lady Sovereign and Good Charlotte.
