Operator Please are an Australian pop band, originating on the Gold Coast of Queensland, in 2005. Their current lineup consists of vocalist and guitarist Amandah Wilkinson, drummer Tim Commandeur, keyboardist Chris Holland, Ashley McConnell on bass guitar, and violinist Taylor Henderson.
The original members met and formed Operator Please as students of Elanora State High School in order to compete in the school's "Battle of the Bands" competition. After winning the contest, the five members, aged 17 to 19, started working on getting their name out through an independently produced EP, On the Prowl.
Second EP, Cement Cement, generated interest both locally and internationally, from a combination of word of mouth and exposure on the Australian youth radio network Triple J. Within months they had agreed a deal with Virgin/EMI Records for Australia, and for the UK with indie label Brille Records.
Debut album Yes Yes Vindictive was released in March 2008 followed by album GLOVES in April 2010. New single Catapult is the fifth single from their latest album.
