911 are a British boy band that consists of Lee Brennan, Jimmy Constable and Simon 'Spike' Dawbarn. The band was formed in 1995 and in May 1996, they released their debut single. They had their first Top 10 hit later in the year with "Don't Make Me Wait", which reached #10. "The Day We Find Love" (#4), "Body Shakin'" (#3), "The Journey" (#3), "Party People" (#5), "All I Want is You" (#4), "How Do You Want Me to Love You" (#10), the cover songs "More Than a Woman" (#2), "Private Number" (#3), and "A Little Bit More" (#1) continued the group's success. The band split up in February 2000, when they announced their break-up live on Chris Moyles' Radio 1 show.

In 2005, the members of the group reformed to participate in the ITV singing contest, Hit Me Baby One More Time. The band have since done a nightclub tour of the UK & Ireland, performing their most popular hits. More recently, 911 have performed at a number of nightclub and university events. It has been confirmed that they are due to entertain the crowd prior to the Bradford Bulls clash with Leeds Rhinos on Friday 23rd May 2008.
