About

Founder and frontman of the pop rock group Wheatus, the band that released "Teenage Dirtbag" and covered Erasure's "A Little Respect."

Before Fame

Trivia

Although he became popular in the UK, his refusal to lip-synch to his own music on the show Top of the Pops caused him friction with his own label.

Family Life

He was born in Northport, New York, growing up alongside his brother, who joined his group.

His rendition of Andy Bell and Erasure's "Just A Little Respect" made it all the way to #3 on the UK Singles Chart.
