Four One & Only's was a Dutch poppy indie- and post-punk band, active between 1984 and 1996. All members are from Breda, a city in the south of The Netherlands. The style of the group is hard to categorize and is mostly influenced by punk and British post-punk bands like The Fall, Television Personalities, Half Man Half Biscuit, Camper Van Beethoven, sixties psychedelic music, the New Wave sound of Jonathan Richman & The Modern Lovers and folk.

In 1986, the group attracts nationwide attention after the world famous John Peel plays "Completely Nude Between Forgetmenots", which is the b-side of their debut single. Dutch TV station VPRO Television later on recorded a clip with the band in the then popular program called "Jonge Helden". The video can still be watched on Youtube.

The band never came to a major breakthrough, but the intensive touring and consistent release of new material gave Four One And Only's a real cult-status.
