Biography

Early life and formation

Young Men Society were formed in 2009 at a hip hop dance class.[1] One of their friends came up with the group's name and initially they thought it sounded "corny", however the name eventually grew on them and they have since loved it.[1] Josh Fonmoa was born and raised in Sydney, while Andi Tahta originally came from Jakarta, Indonesia, and Nathan Tamati from England.[1] At the age of 10, Tahta and his family relocated to Australia "in search of a better life".[1] Tamati decided to take a break from college and moved to Australia in 2005 to live with his brother Damon.[1] All members worked together in retail and as dance teachers.[1]

2011: The X Factor Australia

Young Men Society successfully auditioned for the third season of The X Factor Australia in 2011, singing Mike Posner's "Cooler Than Me".[1] They eventually progressed through to the live shows and were mentored by Ronan Keating.[1] Young Men Society were eliminated from the competition on 18 October 2011.[2]

Young Men Society performed the following songs on The X Factor:[1][3]

2012–present: Record deal and debut single

Following their departure from The X Factor, Young Men Society did not receive any offers of recording contracts from record labels.[4] They decided to record their first single titled "We Own the Night" as independent artists and filmed their own music video for the song.[4] In an interview with The Music Network, Tahta stated "After the show we actually didn't have any kind of [label] options, there was a point in time where we were really down, but we just told ourselves, 'Let's just keep going, let's make this track, let's just keep recording, let's do a video for it".[4] Sony Music Australia were impressed with the single and its accompanying video, and decided to sign Young Men Society to their record label.[4]

During January and February 2012, Young Men Society were supporting acts for Justice Crew's Sexy and I Know It Tour.[5] The single "We Own the Night" was released via iTunes Stores on 16 March 2012.[6] It debuted and peaked on the New Zealand Singles Chart at number 28, but failed to impact the Australian ARIA Singles Chart.[7] In April 2012, Young Men Society were supporting acts for Reece Mastin's New Zealand tour.[8] The group are no longer signed to Sony Music Australia.[9]
