All in favor elected to call the bands name Y. Hence,Y is the man, and Y is the band. Hollywood shows at famed venues like The Troubadour, Spaceland, The Whisky A Go-Go, The Viper Room, The Derby and other clubs propelled Y on to the international scene. With the help of band mate Jason Womack aka Slippy, a Mississippi born mulit-instrumentalist and now bass player of Juliette and the Licks, Y began recording and releasing music to all the fans demands.
