Letters To CleoLetters To Cleo was an alternative rock band from Boston, Massachusetts (they originally started out as a ska band). The band was made up of members Michael Eisenstein, Kay Hanley, Stacy Jones, Greg McKenna, Scott Riebling, and Tom Polce. Their name came from the fact that Hanley had a pen pal named Cleo when she was younger. Band history The band was formed in 1990. They had their first big hit single with "Here & Now", off their album Aurora Gory Alice. "Here & Now" would later appear on the Melrose Place soundtrack, where it got most of its exposure. In 1997, Stacy Jones left the band to join Veruca Salt and was replaced by Tom Polce (Jones later joined American Hi-Fi). Letters to Cleo was featured in the movie 10 Things I Hate About You in 1999 (one of the characters considers them a favorite band). They contributed two songs to the soundtrack for the film, including a cover of Cheap Trick's "I Want You to Want Me". The band played its last show on May 4, 2000 in Boston, and announced their disbandment in the Boston Globe the following month. Most of the band members are now involved in solo careers. Most notably is Kay Hanley's career, which produced the album Cherry Marmalade in 2002. Members - Kay Hanley - vocals
