  • Little Man Tate are a four-piece indie band from Sheffield, England and formed in 2005. The band quickly began attracting interest from several record labels and in March 2006 signed to V2 Records, later parting ways in November 2007. Their fifth single, Sexy In Latin was released on January 22 and became their highest charting single yet, entering the official UK singles chart at number 20. The band made extensive use of the Internet to gather a fanbase, which may be in part responsible for their relatively rapid rise, with only twelve months having passed from formation to their signing with the V2 record label. Like many other up and coming bands they made extensive use of MySpace as well as their own forum to communicate with and co-ordinate fans. In recognition of their online community's role in their success, the band gave forum members priority booking tickets for their 2006 Christmas show at the Sheffield Boardwalk. (en)

Die Band spielte zunächst unter dem Namen Carousel Moon, später nannte sie sich schlicht Moon. Für kurze Zeit präsentierten sie sich auch als Lazy Eye. Dadurch verlor die Band einen Teil ihrer Fangemeinde, der die ständigen Namensänderungen einfach nicht mitbekam. Nach ihrer Neugründung im Jahr 2005 erlangte die Gruppe um Sänger Edward "Maz" Marriot mit Hilfe des Internet-Netzwerkes myspace.com und ihres eigenen Internet-Forums erstmals auch überregionale Bekanntheit. Im März 2006 unterschrieben sie einen Plattenvertrag beim britischen Indie-Label V2 Records und veröffentlichten seitdem fünf Singles und EPs. Am 29. Januar 2007 erschien ihr Debütalbum About What You Know, dessen Songs von eingängigen Melodien und aus dem Leben gegriffenen Texten geprägt ist. Ihre zwei bisher erfolgreichsten Singles sind die Titel Man I Hate Your Band und What? What You Got? wobei letzteres nicht auf dem LP vorzufinden ist. Vier ihrer fünf Singleveröffentlichungen landeten auf Anhieb in den britischen Top 75 Charts. (de)
