Cole and the gang the “Go Tos” for Quant

With the first of the “Make Me a Pop Star” live shows starting this weekend, Felicity Quant’s Totally Television has revealed the names of the acts formed during the show’s gruelling group stage.

The five-piece boy band starring this season’s heart-throb and certified “marriage material” farm boy, Cole Kennedy, will be called “the Go Tos.” Kennedy and bandmates Joey Demasi, Chase French, Yoshi Kawaguchi and Taylor Knight released a short promo video on social media showing off the band’s new branding and an accompanying hand gesture that has already taken social media by storm.

As one internet wag pointed out: “They’ve got a logo, they’ve their own sign language, and they’re already the biggest boy band in the country. Imagine what’ll happen if they actually release a song?”

Announcing the name on the social media accounts of Totally Television and Totally Records, Quant said the name “the Go Tos” alluded to the fact that “throughout the auditions, these five boys were the ones we kept going back to, time and time again.”

Other acts include a four-piece girl group called Crush, the duo Bernie and Audrey, and “alternative” trio BatSkink.
