Biography

Nine Days is a rock band which was popular in the early 2000s. Formed in Oyster Bay by John Hampson and Brian Desveaux, they released three albums independently during the 90s before their mainstream debut album, The Madding Crowd, was released in 2000. Their greatest popularity came from a handful of hits from The Madding Crowd such as “Absolutely (Story of a Girl)” and “If I Am”.

Another album, So Happily Unsatisfied was scheduled for release in 2003. Unfortunately due to complications with their record label, Sony, this album was never actually released as the band was no longer in possession of the rights of the songs.

In 2006, Nine Days’ official website updated with a statement that the album would finally see an actual release, but no other specifics were given.

After the split with Sony, the band released another album under their own record label. This album can be purchased at the bands website Nine Days Homepage.

Although the band is for the most part still together and perform occasional shows, both vocal artists, John Hampson and Brian Desveaux have pursued solo careers and their music is available for purchase from their websites respectively.

In mid-August 2006, Nine Days reunited and went back to the studio to record.[1] Slow Motion Life (Part One), a new EP with 6 songs, was released on January 19, 2007 and is available from their website. Part Two is planned for release in early summer 2007.

According to the Absolutely (Story of a Girl) Songfacts, Hampson ended up becoming a high school English teacher.

    Love how someone can ask "what happened to them" and not just scroll up and see the bio directly above this. Another example of how stupid people are these days....and probably a good example of how Obama got elected.

    Loved em before they went mainstream. Was a faithful follower when these guys were starting out ... every week at the Village Pub and/or Napper Tandy's. I still own and listen to my signed (by Brian Desveaux) copy of their very first album (recorded before signing with major label) "Something To Listen To". It's my favorite :0P

    It's sooo nice to know that I wasn't the only one who sat around listening to "The Madding Crowd" over and over again. And I love "So Happily Unsatisfied" and it breaks my heart that they never got to release it.
