Kings of Leon is an alternative rock band from Nashville, Tennessee formed in 1999 by the brothers Caleb Followill (vocals and guitar), Jared Followill (bass guitar, vocals and keyboards) and Nathan Followill (drums, percussion and vocals), with their cousin Matthew Followill (guitar and vocals). Both their father and grandfather went by the name 'Leon', which is where the band gets its name. The band's early music was an upbeat blend of southern rock and garage rock influences. Since then, the band has experimented with various genres of music. From the band's debut in 2003, they have grown from an indie act to achieve international stardom, particularly in Ireland, the United Kingdom, and Australia. The band also experienced a growth in popularity in Canada and the United States following their 2008 album Only by the Night. "Use Somebody" is the second single from Only by the Night, the fourth studio album by Kings of Leon, released on December 8, 2008. The music video was premiered exclusively on the band's MySpace page on November 4, 2008. On Sunday, December 7, 2008, Caleb from Kings of Leon said that at about the same time in 2007 when they were.
