Biography

Brother Beyond was a British boy band / pop group, that saw some mainstream success in the late 1980s.

Band members
Nathan Moore - born Nathan Marcellus Moore, 10 January 1965, in Stamford Hill, London - Vocalist
David White - born 6 June 1965, in Highbury, North London - Guitarist / Vocalist
Carl Fysh - born 25 January 1963 - Keyboardist
Steve Alexander - born 20 November 1962, in Ystradgynlais, Powys, Mid Wales - Drummer

Former members
Eg White - Drummer

The group’s first singles, “I Should Have Lied”, “How Many Times”, “Chain-Gang Smile” (produced by Don Was from Was Not Was) and “Can You Keep a Secret?”, were all written by band members Eg White and Carl Fysh, and performed by the band. None of the singles troubled the UK top 50, but were minor chart entries.

However, Stock, Aitken and Waterman auctioned off their services to charity and Brother Beyond and label EMI won the auction . The first song to be released from this session was “The Harder I Try”, a number 2 hit that was only kept off the top by the million-seller “Groovy Kind Of Love”, by Phil Collins. “The Harder I Try” famously samples the drum intro to The Isley Brothers’ “This Old Heart Of Mine”, and indeed the song as a whole has a distinct Motown feel, as does its successor “He Ain’t No Competition”, the 12” of this topping the HI-NRG charts in October 88, where it stayed until it was knocked off by Samantha Fox cover of “I Only Wanna Be With You”, again produced by SAW.
