The Tuesdays was a Norwegian rock group formed in 1990. They were similar in sound to The Bangles, but had a slightly more mature feel—but still catchy pop tunes. They formed in 1990 as No Limits in Larvik, Norway. They released an album in 1994 in Norway and Japan, called, When You're A Tuesday Girl under the name The Tuesday Girls. The vocalist was Jeanette Heidenstrøm at that time. After reconfiguring to include the singer Laila Samuelsen and drummer Linda Gustafsson, they changed their name to The Tuesdays and signed with Arista in 1997. Their self-titled album had some commercial success, especially the single, "It's Up To You". Their follow-up album was rejected by Arista, and the group split up. Former lead singer Laila Samuelsen released a solo album in 2002, and is still involved in writing music.
