History

2000–02: Formation, Busted and rise to fame

James Bourne and Matt Willis had been friends for a number of years and had written material together. Willis claimed that they had been inspired by Green Day, Blink-182 and BBMak. Busted were formed in early 2000 and originally consisted of Bourne, Willis, Ki Fitzgerald and Owen Doyle, although this version of the band broke up later that year. Tom Fletcher was auditioned and offered a place in the group to complete the lineup. 24 hours later, Busted's manager told Fletcher via a phone call that the band was to go ahead as a trio, comprising Bourne, Willis and Charlie Simpson, who was at the same audition as Fletcher.
