All Saints were formed in 1993 by
friends Melanie Blatt and Shaznay Lewis and were
named after All Saints Road in Notting Hill, where
the studio they made their first recordings is
located.
The duo were signed to ZTT Records in 1995 and
released one single 'If You Wanna Party', which
failed to chart. After leaving ZTT Blatt and Lewis
recruited a mutual friend Nicole Appleton who
brought with her sister, Natalie
The group found a new deal with London Records in
1996 and began working with a variety of producers.
All Saint's first single for the label 'I Know Where
It's At/ was released in August 1997.
It was produced by Karl 'K Gee' Gordon, a one time
member of the rap group Outlaw Posse. The single
reached No.4 and made the US Top 40, but was totally
eclipsed by the group's follow up hit, the down
tempo 'Never Ever' - produced by Neneh Cherry's
husband and producer Cameron McVey.
