| Danny Jones mini-bio: Daniel 'Danny' Alan David Jones (born 12 March 1986 in Bolton, Great Manchester) is one of the lead vocalists and gutarists in the British pop band McFly, alongside fellow band members Dougie Poynter (bassist, vocalist), Tom Fletcher (guitarist, vocalist) and Harry Judd (drummer). Education: Jones was educated at Bolton School and then Thornleigh Salesian College in Bolton, in North West England. He later went to Bury College in Bury, Lancashire. McFly: McFly rose to fame in 2003, this was heavily influenced by their association with former band Busted who helped launch them by offering them the position of support act in their tour, ''A present for everyone''. Jones met Tom Fletcher when he auditioned for the boyband V (whom he had mistaken as being a more bustedesque band), Fletcher who was filming the auditions for Island Records , later approached Jones. The two conversed and found they had common interests and so Fletcher invited Jones to write with him and James Bourne. When writing projects for Busted had ended, the two began writing for their own (as of yet, unnamed) band, eventually moving, temporarily into the InterContinental Hotel, in London. Drummer Harry Judd and bassist Dougie Poynter were subsequently recruited via an advert placed by the duo in the NME magazine. Jones has co-written all four of McFly's studio albums along with his fellow band members. He also penned three of his own, solo tracks, on the first three McFly albums. Jones also often takes the role of the lead guitarist in most performances, with Fletcher acting as rythm guitar, and can be seen performing solo in songs such as That Girl, I Wanna Hold You, Everybody Knows and Transylvania. He has many solos in other songs as well, however sings in all songs.
