History

Six60 was formed in Dunedin; the founding members met while attending University of Otago. The band created their name from the street number of the house they lived at in Dunedin, 660 Castle Street.{{cite web|last1=Bailey|first1=Thomas|title=Six60|url=http://www.beat.com.au/music/six60|access-date=9 June 2014}} As Ji Fraser said, "That's where it all began. It was the beginning of everything. It was a place that meant so much to us."{{cite web|last1=Gallagher|first1=Sarah|title=It was the beginning of everything|date=20 February 2014|url=https://dunedinflatnames.co.nz/2014/02/21/it-was-the-beginning-of-everything-660-castle-street-flatnames-six60|access-date=6 February 2018}} In July 2021 the band bought 660 Castle Street and created four $10,000 performing arts scholarships at the University of Otago.{{Cite web|date=29 July 2021|title=Tomato sauce, broken glass and beer – inside Six60's $1.7m flat purchase|url=https://www.stuff.co.nz/entertainment/music/300368649/tomato-sauce-broken-glass-and-beer--inside-six60s-17m-flat-purchase|access-date=29 July 2021|website=Stuff|language=en}}

Their local following developed from Dunedin to other student hubs around the country such as Auckland, Waikato, Christchurch and Wellington.

Six60's original EP, released in 2008, contained a track called "Someone to Be Around".{{cite web|title=Six60 EP|url=http://www.last.fm/music/Six60/Six60+EP|access-date=9 June 2014}} This track was left off their debut album but remains one of their most popular songs.

Six60 have a quadruple platinum number-one debut album with triple platinum-selling single "Don't Forget Your Roots", two double platinum-selling singles "Only to Be" and "Rise Up", two platinum-selling singles "Forever" and "Special", and one gold-selling single "Lost".

In early March 2013 the band was featured on George FM Breakfast's 'Damn! I Wish I Was Your Cover' series covering Rudimental's "Feel the Love".

In 2014, their song "Run for It" was featured on the trailer of ITV drama series Prey, starring John Simm.Archived at [https://ghostarchive.org/varchive/youtube/20211205/lJzvbTTpYGQ Ghostarchive]{{cbignore}} and the [https://web.archive.org/web/20140407164403/http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lJzvbTTpYGQ Wayback Machine]{{cbignore}}: {{cite web| url = https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lJzvbTTpYGQ| title = Prey {{!}} Full Trailer {{!}} ITV | website=YouTube}}{{cbignore}}{{Cite web|url=http://open.spotify.com/track/2PNW6xeakw8dWGVnkKXRr3|title = Run for It|website = Spotify|date = 7 February 2014}}
