Innosense

Innosense was an American girl group that were active from 1997 to 2003.

==History== ===1997–1999: Formation and "Wherever You Are"=== The band was managed by Lou Pearlman and Janet Lynn Harless (mother of Justin Timberlake). The original members were Danay Ferrer, Mandy Ashford, Nikki DeLoach, Veronica Finn, and Amanda Latona. The group was formed in 1997. Their name was suggested by Pearlman and Harless. The band decided to misspell the name so they would not sound like "innocent little four-year-olds." Their inspirations were bands such as NSYNC and the Backstreet Boys. Ashford was a member of the Attache show choir, along with high-school friend Lance Bass, with whom she also shared a vocal coach. Bass recommended Ashford to Pearlman, and she was selected to join the band. Britney Spears was initially a member of Innosense, but she departed the group to pursue a career as a solo artist before they could record any songs with her.
