Let Loose are a British pop/rock trio, featuring Richie Wermerling (born Richard John Wermerling, 11 May 1968 in Whitechapel, London) on lead vocals and keyboards, Rob Jeffrey (born Robert George Edward Jeffrey, 30 November 1967 in Romford, Essex) on guitars and backing vocals, and Lee J. Murray (born 14 May 1970 in Edgware, Middlesex) on drums, percussion and backing vocals. The reformed lineup were due to tour the UK on the "Another Time, Another Place" arena tour in November 2014, however the tour was cancelled only two weeks after tickets went on sale.
The band initially scored minor success in the UK Singles Chart with two of their first three singles "Crazy For You" (#44) and "Seventeen" (#44). They also released "Face To Face" which was withdrawn from sale by their record label. "Crazy For You" was re-released in the UK entering the UK Singles Chart at #24, and climbing to finally reach a #2 peak. The success of "Crazy For You" led to a remix of "Seventeen"; the track was unable to match the popularity of "Crazy For You" and peaked at #11.
Their debut album entitled Let Loose featuring keyboard player Adam Lee was released peaking at #20 and selling 100,000 copies. The album release was followed by the single "One Night Stand" which peaked at #12. The final track to be taken from the album was the ballad "Best In Me" which, according to the album sleeve, was recorded in lead singer's Wermerling's bedroom at the age of fifteen. The track became their second UK Top 10 hit, peaking at #8.
The outfit then embarked on a UK tour, and after a seven-month hiatus, Let Loose returned with a new single "Everybody Say Everybody Do" which peaked at #29. Another seven months passed before a new single was released - a cover of the Bread track "Make It with You". The single reached #7 and gave the group their third Top 10 success. This was followed with "'Take It Easy" which peaked at #25.
