Solid Harmonie (stylised as Solid HarmoniE, also known as SHE) were a British-American pop girl group. The group was moderately successful, releasing five singles and a self-titled album, before disbanding in 2000. They had the most success in the Netherlands where their album went to No.2 in the albums chart and was certified gold.[1] Also the single "I Want You to Want Me" peaked at #4 in the Dutch singles chart. They sold over a million records worldwide.
Solid Harmonie formed in 1996 by Lou Pearlman as a female opposite of his earlier created boy bands such as NSYNC and Backstreet Boys. They were signed to Jive Records in the United States. Initially, the band was made up of the trio Rebecca Onslow, Melissa Graham, who was playing in a popular Irish band called Calvary in 1996, and Mariama Goodman. They released their debut single "Got 2 Have Ya" in 1996, before Goodman left in 1997 to care for her ill mother.
1997–1998: Goodman's first departure and Solid HarmoniEedit

Goodman was immediately replaced by American Elisa Cariera in 1997. However, Goodman rejoined the band later in the year and the group became a four-piece. The group was successful, releasing the four singles "I'll Be There for You", "I Want You to Want Me", "I Wanna Love You" and "To Love Once Again" preceded by their self-titled debut album release "Solid Harmonie". The album includes all their hits except "Got 2 Have Ya", which was only released as a CD single in Europe, and the Christmas song "Give Love on Christmas Day" (originally recorded by The Jackson 5), which can be found exclusively on a Christmas compilation from the German magazine Bravo entitled Bravo Christmas Vol. 3 (1996/9).
1998–2000: Goodman's second departure, Graham's departure and disbandmentedit
Goodman left once again and then joined R&B girl group Honeyz. Graham also left and pursued a solo career. After their departures, Onslow and Cariera decided to stay with Solid Harmonie and went back to Orlando, Florida in 1999 where they had several successful tours. Soon Puerto Rican Jenilca Franchesca Giusti joined the band in 1999 after an audition held in Cariera's hometown Orlando, Florida and started briefly recording for the second studio album. The new Solid Harmonie trio was on the cover of TeenFaces magazine on its October issue. Their second album was never released as they could not come to an agreement with their record label, or find a new one once they were without a label.[citation needed] After legal issues, the group lost their recording contract and disbanded. The band eventually disbanded in the early 2000 to embark on solo careers.
2014–present: "Circus" and Twoedit
In 2014, Solid HarmoniE released a single, "Circus", with the lineup of Graham, Onslow and Cariera. However, they did not release any further singles and no album materialised.
In February 2022, a newly mastered version of Solid HarmoniE's shelved second album (recorded by Onslow, Cariera and Giusti) was released under the title Two. This included the tracks "Make Me" (later recorded by Jennifer Paige), "World Without You" (originally recorded by Trine Rein and later by Wild Orchid and Tammin), "Over the Edge" (later recorded by 3 of Hearts) and "Intuition" (later recorded by Liz).
Musical styleedit
Solid Harmonie's debut album was heavily influenced by similar teen pop acts from that period, which was made famous and popular by similar artists such as the more successful Spice Girls, credited for being the pioneers that paved the way for the commercial breakthrough of teen pop in the late 1990s, Backstreet Boys or NSYNC. Teen pop songwriter pioneer Max Martin wrote all of the singles on that album. The shelved follow-up album, Two, had more of an R&B influence but was still very pop-leaning.
