DateMonthYear describe themselves not as a band, but as "a flexible recording/performing unit". It had existed as three entities; 1) as "DateMonthYear-lite", comprising solo or unplugged work, 2) as a more conventional ‘live’ band, and 3) as a group combining experimental and electronic elements to their live sound. The band-name DateMonthYear came while core-member Trevor Faville worked at a London hospital where, for fun, he decided with colleagues to find band names based on anything they could see around them; the phrase Date: Month: Year: was on a patient admission form.
