Elastica 1 - 14: 1995-04-18 15 - 24: 1994-09-06 25 - 27: 1995-04-07 @ 320

Elastica were a Britpop band, formed by Justine Frischmann after leaving Suede in 1991. Frischmann recruited the rest of the band members: Justin Welch (formerly of garage rock band Spitfire - drums), Annie Holland (bass) and Donna Matthews (guitar).

Their first single was 1993's "Stutter", a word-of-mouth hit largely due to the promotional efforts of BBC Radio 1 DJ and Deceptive Records label boss Steve Lamacq. Elastica's fame grew throughout 1994 as Frischmann's relationship with Blur's Damon Albarn made tabloid headlines. Elastica's first LP, Elastica, entered the charts at #1.

Elastica's song "Connection" was used in May 2004 in Garnier television commercials, and was also used as the theme of Trigger Happy TV. The song was the case for a plagiarism lawsuit between Wire's music publisher and Elastica, over the similarity between Wire's 1977 song "Three Girl Rhumba" and Elastica's 1995 hit "Connection" The judgement resulted in an out-of-court settlement for which Wire received no compensation.
