Ballas Hough Band consists of Mark ballas and Derek Hough,both from dancing with the stars (vocals and guitar),Emily Grace on vocals and keyboard, Harry Sullivan on drums, and Sam Marder on bass.

the band was formed in 2005 in London and was called chasing amy, they came  to the us in 2008 and were signed by Hollywood records.

i don’t typically watch dancing with the stars. i’m not really into reality television. but dwts has been on for a while and i never knew they were in a band, and they are great.  usually when you see a professional ballroom dancer, you think to yourself, that’s their talent. these guys offer so much more they can sing too!

my favorite song from the cd was DO IT FOR YOU. it’s got kind of a pop/rock edge to it.  my kids automatically began dancing to it and trying to sing.  

their music was actually better than i thought it would be. i was expecting like calm slow classical music or something. thats what i would imagine from ballroom dancers. no it’s the exact opposite. it’s upbeat, got a rock pop edge to it. It’s really great.
