JoJo loves singing more than anything else in the world, and wanted to form a band. She decided she would call it 'The Heart Shaped Buttons' not only because she liked the name but also if you balance them on your eyeballs you can peek through the little holes, this made her laugh. She says the world looks lovely through rose coloured buttons. As much as JoJo loves singing, Gra loves writing songs. Before he met JoJo he had written so many that his ring binder was bursting. One day as he sat clutching his folder, contemplating his navel (heart shaped of course) he realised if he didn’t find someone to sing them he would a sad lonely git sitting in a spare room full of stuff that nobody would ever hear. By chance Rachel, a friend, told Gra about Andy, whose sister, JoJo, was always pestering Andy to let her sing in his group. It wasn't long before JoJo and Gra got together and the Heart Shaped Buttons were up and running. JoJo and Gra have difficulty with technical things so Andy records and captures the sounds they make and plays his shiny new bass guitar on the songs. Meanwhile Zoltan, a long-time friend of Gra said he would like to play keyboards and because he already knew many of the songs, it seemed like a good idea. What will happen next? We are always looking to take our music forward. If you can help us and want to be part of the story give us a call. Thanks for visiting.
