Lee Andrew Hutton is an English singer-songwriter musician, born in Chesterfield. He was part of the boy band project Streetwize, alongside Donal Skehan, Lee Mulhern and Jonathan Fagerlund. With a slightly changed Streetwize line-up that included Kyle Carpenter and Venezuelan Antonio Jones, Hutton took part in Childline 2007 charity event singing a cover of Living in a Box's hit "Room in Your Heart". Hutton then went solo with "Shinedown", "Perfect Bride", "Invincible", "Madeline" and "Butterfly" until joining Industry, becoming the only non-Irish member of the band.

Donal Skehan, a vocalist with Industry, was born in Dublin, Ireland, on 3 June 1986. In 2006, he was an original member of the boyband project Streetwize, with whom he toured in Ireland, UK and Sweden, and appeared on the US television station CN8.

After quitting the band, he became an announcer on the Bubble Hits station, broadcasting music and entertainment news and celebrity gossip segments. On 23 February 2008, he attempted to represent Ireland in the 2008 Eurovision Song Contest with the song "Double Cross My Heart" composed by Joel Humlen, Oscar Gorres and Charlie Mason, but was beaten by Dustin the Turkey. Skehan has also authored a cookbook, Good Mood Food.
