| - I Nine were a pop rock band formed c. 2004. Their hit song, %22Seven Days of Lonely,%22 was released through iTunes in September 2007 and has since become popular. Their debut studio album, Heavy Weighs the King, was released on May 6, 2008. The song %22Seven Days of Lonely%22 was put iTunes as the service's %22free single of the week%22 from February 19, 2008 - February 25, 2008.In the April 5, 2008 issue of Billboard, I Nine's second single %22If This Room Could Move,%22 which was produced by Nickelback's Chad Kroeger, received a spotlight review by editor Chuck Taylor: %22I Nine catapulted out of native South Carolina when Cameron Crowe invited the quartet to appear on the motion pic soundtrack for his Elizabethtown. At year-end 2007, it grazed the adult top 40 top 25 with %22Seven Days of Lonely,%22 the debut from upcoming CD Heavy Weighs the King — but that pep pill was a mere taste of the group’s prowess. Sunny follow-up %22If This Room Could Move%22 is garnering hype because Chad Kroeger produced — all well and good but bragging rights are earned on its own merits: an ambrosial vocal from Carmen Keigans, divine start-and-stop tempo, and instrumental elements that blend ‘90s jangle-rock with Brit pop. On record, they sound like a blissful union of Jewel and Sixpence None the Richer — if more Avril Lavigne live. With two exquisite singles in a row, I Nine is counting down to name-brand status. Utterly superlative.%22 The band disbanded when Carmen elected to pursue college and the men joined a new band, Tent Revival.
