The Fore got their start as The Beatniks in 2000, after changing their name to The Fore in 2001 they took their energetic, harmonious sounds wherever they could find an audience. This brought them to the attention of the manager of The Cavern Club in Liverpool, who offered them a residency. They played clubs, festivals even high street venues to broaden their fan base as they gained experience. In 2007, they recorded their first CD, entitled Black & White an independent venture that has sold thousands of copies around the world by word-of-mouth only!
