V Factory is an American Pop/R&B/Urban guy group. The V stands for roman numeral 5.

History

The group began to coalesce in September 2006 when Tommy Page — a Warner Bros. Records’ vice president of A&R who worked with High School Musical star Ashley Tisdale on her debut album — accompanied Tisdale to rehearsals for the first HSM tour. “I watched Ashley perform with a group of teen dancers who were cast by director Kenny Ortega,” Page says. “Ashley and I were both knocked out by Jared Murillo who seemed to own the stage. I thought, ‘Wow, if I could find four other guys who could sing and move like that, we could form an amazing group.’” (Page knows a little something about pop groups, having spent ten years as an artist. He scored a No. 1 hit with “I’ll Be Your Everything” in 1990 and toured with chart-topping pop phenomenon New Kids on the Block for four years.) “For me,” Page says, “Jared was the template that set the bar.”

Tipped off by young Hollywood’s premiere vocal coach Eric Vetro, Page was introduced to Asher Book. Page was also struck by Asher’s upbeat personality and easygoing way with people. “I knew immediately that he was the one to anchor the group,” Page says.

After holding auditions, they added the gregarious, fun-loving, Wesley Quinn, the street-smart Nick Teti, known by his nickname Nicky T, and the wise Nathaniel Flatt.

They signed a record deal later that year and are currently under the management of Bill Pearlman. [ [http://www.sltrib.com/ci_9142875 Boy bands primed for a comeback - Salt Lake Tribune ] ]
