History[edit]
2013–14: Formation and Britain's Got Talent[edit]
Devries and Lenehan first met on Facebook[1] in September 2013, after Devries had seen Lenehan's videos. They first met in person in January 2014 and decided to form a music duo as Bars and Melody.[9]
On 8 February 2014, Bars and Melody auditioned in Manchester for the eighth series of Britain's Got Talent. They performed a song based on Twista and Faith Evans' "Hope", with Devries replacing the original verses with ones protesting against bullying. After the performance, Simon Cowell pressed the golden buzzer, sending them through straight through to the live semifinals.[1][8]
Before the semifinals, the boys appeared and performed on The Ellen DeGeneres Show in the United States.[10] In the BGT semi-final on 29 May, they performed Puff Daddy and Faith Evans' "I'll Be Missing You", coupled with new verses about someone who had recently lost a friend; audience members were given candles to wave during the performance. They won their semi-final and progressed through to the final,[11] where they performed the song they sang in their audition and ultimately finished third behind Lucy Kay and Collabro.[3] According to Billboard magazine, the video of their audition was number six in the top ten trending videos for 2014.[12]
2014–15: 143[edit]
Main article: 143 (album)
Despite not winning, Bars and Melody signed a £500,000 record deal with Simon Cowell's record label,[1] Syco, which released "Hopeful" in July 2014.[1] Their debut single went straight to number five on the UK Singles Chart.[4] The music video of their song "Hopeful" was released on YouTube on 7 July 2014.[13][14] To promote the song, they appeared on television shows such as Good Morning Britain,[15] This Morning,[16] and The Official Chart on BBC Radio 1.[17] By late September, the song "Hopeful" was number 33 on the Twitter Top Tracks.[18]
Bars and Melody also participated in their first HMV signing tour to promote Hopeful. They released the song "Shining Star", which came out as part of Hopeful Acoustic.[6] Their second single, "Keep Smiling", was released on 28 February 2015,[19] with a music video filmed in Plymouth.[20][21] It peaked at 52 in the Official Charts Company.[19] Their third official single, "Stay Strong", was released on 18 April 2015 and peaked at 53 in the Official Charts Company.[19] Two physical editions of the CD could be purchased with each one containing an image of either Lenehan or Devries, promoted through a second HMV signing tour.[22] They released their fourth single "Beautiful" in June 2015 alongside a music video.[citation needed]
The boys released their debut album, 143, on 21 August 2015,[7] which peaked at number four on the UK Albums Chart on 28 August 2015.[2] The album included their previously recorded singles and additional songs. To promote the album, they toured across the United Kingdom in the summer and had a winter tour in the United Kingdom, the Netherlands and Poland,[23] where the album went platinum.[24]
Following a guest presenting stint in 2014,[25] Bars and Melody made a red carpet appearance at the premiere of CBBC show Friday Download in May 2015.[26] They also participated in the Friday Download movie called Up All Night.[27] They performed the third ending theme "Unite (Live Forever)" for the anime series Future Card Buddyfight Triple D.[citation needed] They appeared on BBC's Newsround during a week-long series about bullying in February 2015.[28]
2016[edit]
Main article: Teen Spirit (EP)
In 2016, they toured five cities with Kiera Weathers, a contestant on The X Factor, in February and April of that year. The cities included London, Birmingham, Bristol, Glasgow, and Liverpool.[29] They also became ambassadors for the Anti Bullying Charity campaign that year.[2] In August 2016, their album Teen Spirit was released by Syco.[2] They toured Australia and Japan by August 2016.[24]
In August, 2016 they released their first Japanese album, titled Hopeful by Avex Music Creative, including fourteen tracks from the UK albums 143 and Teen Spirit as well as UK and Japanese versions of Hopeful.[30]
They toured thirteen cities in Austria, Germany and Switzerland in November and December, opening for German teen singer Lukas Rieger .[31]

Members[edit]
Leondre Devries[edit]
Leondre Antonio Devries was born 6 October 2000[1] to stonemason Antonio and personal trainer Victoria Devries.[35][36] From Port Talbot, Neath Port Talbot, Wales, he has three older brothers—Jacob Lee, Joseph Devries (Joey), and the eldest is Ben Lee —and a younger sister, Matilda Devries (Tilly).[35] Joey was part of the boy band Overload Generation who participated in the eleventh series of The X Factor.[37] Leondre Devries has spoken openly about his experiences of bullying for four years before he switched schools.[35] He attended the Glan Afan Comprehensive School at the time of the Britain's Got Talent competition.[8] Previously he rapped solo under the stage name 'Little Dre'.[35] His father said that Devries lived with him until he appeared on Britain's Got Talent, and after that has lived with his mother.[38] Although Devries said that his father was a stonemason during the contest,[36] his father now says he is a music promoter.[38]
Charlie Lenehan[edit]
Charlie Lenehan was born 27 October 1998 in Frampton Cotterell.[1] He lives in South Gloucestershire[21] with his mother, a school cook; his step-father, a businessman;[39] his younger brother, Joel; and a younger sister, Brooke. His mother, Karen James, is a cook in Thornbury at Gillingstool and New Siblands schools.[40] Lenehan took up singing at the age of 11 when his schoolmates invited him to join a band.[1] He has been attending the Winterbourne International Academy[9] since he was 11, and was interested in drama, music, and engineering at the time of the competition. He returned to school the first day after the Britain's Got Talent finale.[40] He is Melody in the group.
Lawsuit[edit]
Antonio Devries, Leondre's father, threatened to file a suit against the group in March 2016, saying that he wrote Hopeful due to troubles that he was having in his life.[38] He claims that he helped promote the boys until their Britain's Got Talent contest, is unhappy that the boys are moving away from the anti-bullying theme, and claims that their management overworks them. He says that he does not have any issues with Bars and Melody,[38][41] but he took over the boy's social media accounts and posted music from his son Joey and other artists he represents until the management team regained control of the accounts.[9] The management team, who Devries says is the root of the problem, have stated that the boys wrote Hopeful. A spokesperson for the boys says that they are happy with their career and management team and do not feel exploited or overworked.[38][41] They also said, "Bars and Melody are sorry to hear that legal action is being threatened and they hope it will resolved quickly and amicably."[38]

Köppen climate types in New England
The White Mountains of New Hampshire are part of the Appalachian Mountains.
The climate of New England varies greatly across its 500-mile (800 km) span from northern Maine to southern Connecticut:
Maine, Vermont, New Hampshire, and most of Massachusetts have a humid continental climate (Dfb in Köppen climate classification). In this region the winters are long, cold, and heavy snow is common (most locations receive 60 to 120 inches (1,500 to 3,000 mm) of snow annually in this region). The summer's months are moderately warm, though summer is rather short and rainfall is spread through the year. Cities like Worcester, Massachusetts, Concord, New Hampshire, and Burlington, Vermont average 60 to 80 inches (1,500 to 2,000 mm) of snow annually. The frost-free growing season ranges from 90 days in far northern Maine and the mountains of New Hampshire and Vermont to 140 days along the Maine coast and in most of western Massachusetts.[citation needed]
In central and eastern Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and northern Connecticut, the same humid continental prevails (Dfa), though summers are warm to hot, winters are shorter, and there is less snowfall (especially in the coastal areas where it is often warmer), with the general exception of the higher elevations and other normally cooler locations. Cities like Boston, Hartford, and Providence receive 35 to 50 inches (890 to 1,270 mm) of snow annually. Summers can occasionally be hot and humid, with high temperatures in the lower Connecticut River valley of Massachusetts and northern Connecticut between 90 and 100 °F (32 and 38 °C). Summer thunderstorms are common between June and August. The frost-free growing season ranges from 140 days in parts of central Massachusetts to near 160 days across interior Connecticut and most Rhode Island[citation needed].
Southern and coastal Connecticut is the broad transition zone from continental climates to temperate climates to the south. The coast of Connecticut from Stamford, through the Bridgeport/New Haven area to New London is the mildest area of New England. Summers are frequently hot and humid, and winters are cool with a mix of snow and rain. Most cities along the Connecticut coast average 20 to 25 inches (510 to 640 mm) of snow annually[citation needed], though in some winters there is little snowfall. Winters also tend to be sunnier in southern Connecticut and southern Rhode Island compared to northern and central New England. Summers can be hot and humid, and thunderstorms are common from June through September. Tropical cyclones have struck southern Connecticut and coastal Rhode Island several times, including in 1938 and 1954 (Hurricane Carol) when several hundred people were killed. The frost-free growing season approaches 200 days along the Connecticut coast.[1]
