Nine Days consists of John Hampson (on vocals and
guitar), Brian Desveaux (on vocals and guitar), Nick
Dimichino (on bass), Vincent Tattanelli (on drums),
and Jeremy Dean (on keyboards). The band was brought
together during the 90s in New York by Hampson and
Desveaux who had been playing together since 1991.
The name of the group has been explained by Desveaux:
"The name Nine Days came from when John and I
first started writing songs together. We had been
writing stuff for a year. Then when we decided we had
a bunch of songs, we went into the studio with our
bass player Nick. There was a song in the batch of
songs called "Nine Days of Rain" and for
short it was written down as "Nine Days."
We only had a certain amount of time in the studio,
and we were recording that song on the last and
ninth day. Ninth day in the studio, "Nine
Days of Rain" -- the name just seemed to
fit."
