Jed "Mondo" O'Toole was one of the original members of Frankie Goes to Hollywood alongside his brother Mark. Jed left the band making way for his cousin, Brian Nash (known as Nasher) before the band's first album. However, Jed re-joined the band for its worldwide tours in 1984 and 1987 as the 6th Frankie.
