Hometown: Brisbane, Australia
This Aussie duo snagged their name from an Anne Rice novel, but they're the
farthest thing from scary. And please don't call singer Darren Hayes
(left) and guitarist-keyboard player Daniel Jones (right) a one-hit wonder.
"I Want You," their debut single, was no first-time fluke--their third
single, "Truly Madly Deeply," shot straight to number one. Bored by
the grunge scene and bonded together by their mutual love for '80s pop music,
Darren and Daniel formed Savage Garden three years ago. It was mission
possible: They rocked the land Down Under first, then moved on to conquer
the world. Says Darren, "We dreamed really loud."
