Hailing from England, Client formed in 2003 with original members Client A (Kate Holmes formerly of Frazier Chorus and Technique) and Client B (Sarah Blackwood former singer of Dubstar). In 2003, Client was signed to Depeche Mode keyboardist Andy Fletcher’s Toast Hawaii label. The band and label’s first release was the single Price Of Love in April which was followed up by a second single Rock And Roll Machine and the self titled debut album in August. The album was hailed by press around the world as a “breakthrough” and “groundbreaking,” and in particular, high praises came from Billboard Magazine and the UK’s DJ Magazine. This led to the release of a third single, Here And Now in December.

To keep their momentum strong, the duo immediately began working on new material for their follow-up release. With their new found fans eager for new material, the In It For The Money single was released in June of 2004, and followed-up by the Radio single and second album, City, in September. With their debut album garnering them so much attention, they were able to acquire Joe Wilson (Sneaker Pimps/Trash Money) as a co-producer and land guest vocal appearances on City by Martin Gore (Depeche Mode), Carl Barat (The Libertines) and Pete Doherty (Babyshambles). The third single, Pornography, from their second album was released in early 2005.
