About the Author

5SOS, as they are affectionately referred to by their ever burgeoning fanbase, 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-fuelled super-rock of turn of the millennium Americana.
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 re-located 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 have released their debut album, which immediately reached No.1 globally 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 U.S. alone surpassing two million, its been a busy year for 5SOS.
