Wheatus was formed by Brendan B. Brown in 1998. Brown wrote a few songs, enlisted the help of his brother Peter on drums and Rich Liegey on bass (he was replaced by Mike McCabe after the release of their self-titled debut Wheatus). In 1999, they hired New York attorney Ray Maiello to shop their demo tape and signed with Kevin Patrick at Columbia Records; thereafter, Maiello managed the band briefly.
Wheatus' first and largest hit was the single "Teenage Dirtbag," which charted at #1 in the UK.
