Jakob Foster started out as a young man in a music school with a backpack of clothes, an old guitar, and an endless supply of dreams. During the later years of his education, he and three of his friends formed a band, J.A.C.K. (formed from their initials: Jakob as the guitarist/lead vocal, Al the keyboardist, Cyrus the bassist/backing vocal, and Kevin the drummer). J.A.C.K. did not initially succeed, but when their demo track was finally accepted by the umpteenth studio they sent it to, they suddenly became a radio hit. Moving up from management to management, J.A.C.K. ended up being much more than Jakob ever dreamed it would be! Fangirls everywhere (and sometimes even fanboys) entertained fantasies of spending "quality time" with the "hottie boys", and Jakob, with his mop of black hair and warm brown eyes, was the most popular of them. Sadly, some of it had gone to his head, but most of the time, Jakob remains an easygoing, funny young man with a guitar on his knee.
Lia Thorne started out much more easily than Jakob. Born to a West End stage actor, Gary Thorne, and a stage costume specialist, Beth Campbell, Lia started out her life literally drowned in acting. As a child, she played Dorothy in her school's (very much abridged) version of "The Wizard of Oz", and as she grew up even acted alongside her father (who played the titular character) in "The Phantom of the Opera" as understudy for the role of Meg Giry. But it was her film career that made Lia famous. At the tender age of nineteen, Lia played the lead female role in an action-fantasy flick called "Crescent", in which she played a vampire girl falling in love with a werewolf. Her acting was lauded as genius, and Lia soon found many offers of roles dumped on her feet.
It was on one such job that she met her future boyfriend. Starring in a film version of "Jem and the Holograms", Lia insisted to the director that they needed a real-life band to cameo as Jem's concert opener, and the director managed to contact J.A.C.K. for the cameo. On set, Jakob and Lia hit it off instantly - Jakob's charming demeanour got to Lia quickly, and he likewise was impressed by the singing abilities Lia gained during her musical theatre years. In a few months, the two of them were frequently spotted hanging around pubs and attending film premiers (including said "Jem and the Holograms") together, and tabloids instantly dubbed them Jalia, which Jakob joked would make an excellent name for their daughter.
