EDDIE Brett, 21, Sonny Jay, 19, and Te Qhairo, 19, met at Colin's Performing Arts College in Romford and since then formed their band which shot to success through last year's Britain's Got Talent.
The Loveable Rogues have since taken the country by storm and will be headlining the Brentwood Festival on Sunday, July 7.
Talking about coming to Brentwood again they said: "We're partial to a bit of Sugar Hut and the Slug and Lettuce and we do lots in Essex.
"We did the Music Crowns Festival and a performance at Hopefield. Back in the day we were on Phoenix FM too."
The boys, live in Essex and London – Sonny is based in Chigwell, Te in Canary Warf and Eddie in Harlow.
When asked what they would be bringing to the Brentwood Festival they replied: "Music and lots of fun and hopefully nice weather.
"We'll be doing our first and second single as well as other songs. We can appeal to families and our fans are of all ages."
The boys described their music as predominately pop with their own spin.
They explained: "It's all our own stuff, besides a few covers," adding that their new album will consist entirely of their own music.
The band have been on tour with Olly Murs and spoke highly of the Essex pop star:
"It was fantastic, he is from near where we live.
"When you go away with someone that long we came out friends which made it a really nice vibe."
The band have been performing together for two years and individually since before then.
"This is what we've always wanted," they explained.
"This is something we've aspired to do but you never know you're going to make it.
"It's a bit nuts at the moment – when our friends ask us what we've been up to and you tell them it's like you're telling yourself and that's when it starts to sink in.
"We're more used to it now but as it's so varied it doesn't sink in. We never really argue, only over little things like who spends the most time in the bathroom – nothing serious."
Eddie explained how he came up with the band's name: "I was in the park and saw a bird pecking at another bird, he went off and did the same to another bird – I thought to myself 'what a loveable rogue' and it came from there."
The boys are now focusing on their album and second single and in the future are hoping to do their own tour as well as planning a summer holiday.
"And of course spending lots of time in Brentwood," they added.
