About Me

Me, Myself, and I
From out of the now infamous Islington Mill art space in Salford The Ting Tings formed in 2007. Born of a desire to employ the DIY ethic from day one – Katie White & Jules De Martino escaped the industry trappings they once experienced in a previous band and went back to basics as a duo.

The first Ting Tings music to be circulated was the original version of That’s Not My Name in early summer 07. Self-released, hand artworked and strictly limited, pressings of the track found their way up and down the country and the real buzz began.

Great DJ became the first official single released through Columbia, followed by the full release of TNMN, which hit the #1 spot in the UK simultaneously with the debut album We Started Nothing.

The final single from this album will be We Walk, coming before the UK tour which will see them play bigger venues across the country including Brixton Academy - no less than a year since first single proper Great DJ was released.
