Yfriday consists of Danny, Dez, Ken and Daz and started out in 1994 leading a local worship event called whyfriday? in Newcastle with the Youth For Christ (YFC) movement. At this event many young people attended and eventually they had to move out of their original premises and move to the Newcastle City Hall. This event gave the band the opportunity to develop their own style and sound also helping them create a song writing style with a strong and dynamic ministry focused on salvation and healing through Jesus.

In 1999 everything began to happen for the band; they recorded and released the Rainmaker album containing all of their own material and were approached by Kingsway to see if they would like to join with them on a 3 year recording contract.

In 2001 yFriday released their second album Open which included tracks such as Creator, Rain and Head over Heels which they released as an EP.

During April 2006 the band's fifth album was released; Universal. Through out 2006 the band will be touring across the country including their Universal Tour.
