BBMak: This British trio puts the "band" back in "boy band"

Sure, they've appeared on a Disney special, boast a good-looking lineup and take their name from their member's initials, but be clear on one thing -- call BBMak a boy band if you must, but be sure to put the emphasis on "band."

Englishmen Mark Barry, Christian Burns and Ste McNally are BBMak, the best thing out of England since Cadbury Dairy Milk. What sets these lads apart from the pack is that they put the band back in, well, you know. Not only do BBMak write and produce much of their own material, but they play instruments on their records as well. See BBMak in concert and you'll notice that they're more worried about tuning their guitars than remembering new dance steps -- no choreography for them.

Having already made their mark overseas, BBMak are primed to break out in the US with their new single, "Back Here," the video for which MTV has deemed buzzworthy. And while their gorgeous mix of rock, pop and soul makes them stand out from the pop titans of today, they're still playing on the same field. They appeared with M2M on a Disney In Concert special and they'll take their sparkling harmonies on the road with Britney Spears starting in June. Oops... they might just become megastars.
