Deep Blue Something

Deep Blue Something is an American rock band best known for its hit single "Breakfast at Tiffany's." The group was founded in 1993 in Denton, Texas by students Todd and Terry Pipes, Kirk Tatum, and John Kirtland.
In 1996, "Breakfast at Tiffany's," which referenced the classic Audrey Hepburn film of the same name, reached the top five in the U.S. and number one in the United Kingdom.
There was conjecture that the band took so much time off between Home and Deep Blue Something in order to fight US centered copyright issues related to their initial album, 11th Song, which they believed to be of lower quality than their name deserved. The 7 year hiatus between albums is believed to be partially responsible for their failure to succeed in the US with their self-titled release.
Their official website is now taken over by a domain name squatter and the band may have disbanded. With 5 years between Home and Byzantium, fans still hold out hope for a new release.
