5SOS, as they are affectionately referred to by their
ever-burgeoning fan base, first met in the schoolyard in a small
town in the western suburbs of Sydney, Australia. Luke (18), Mikey
(19), Calum (19), and Ash (20) were brought together by a mutual
love of pop-punk and the adrenaline-fueled super rock of
turn-of-the-millennium America.
They started posting videos on YouTube and within six months had
amassed 50,000 Facebook fans, 100,000 Twitter followers, and more
than 5 million YouTube views. The band relocated to London in
September 2012 with one eye on world domination.
Fast-forward eighteen months, and, having spent 2013 and 2014
touring the globe, 5SOS released their debut album, which
immediately reached #1 on iTunes in 71 countries and topped charts
around the world, including the US Billboard chart. With more than
1.5 million albums sold worldwide and total single track sales in
the US alone surpassing two million, it's been a busy year for
5SOS.
