The Vines were formed in Sydney in 1994 when Craig Nicholls met original bass player Patrick Mattews while working at McDonalds. The band was originally called Rishikesh after the place in India where the beatles went, but was eventually changed to The Vines after Craigs fathers elvis cover band 'The Vynes'.
