Who were EverYoung?

EverYoung was a British pop band from London.

The group was composed of Hollie McKinlay, Jack Morlen, Cherelle Williams and Love Island's Eyal Booker.

The foursome met while attending the World-famous Slyvia Young Theatre School.

They were signed on an 18-month apprenticeship to Sylvia’s fledgeling record label, Seymore Place Music and toured around UK schools and festivals

What were there biggest songs?

In addition to performing cover versions of popular songs, the band write and produce their own original music

Their debut single You Got Me entered the UK indie chart at number 30 in 2013.

The groups follow up effort was called Icy Blue before they released 2015's Starchaser, where they were joined by legendary actor Jeremy Irons for the music video.

After joining Love Island, Eyal revealed his pop star past, saying: "We had small time success and toured the country, built up a little fan base and there was fan girl hysteria.

"They’d follow us around and come to our gigs and stuff so that was a little taste."
