About Five
Five, often stylised as 5ive, stormed onto the music scene in 1997, quickly becoming one of the most successful boybands of their era. Comprising Ritchie Neville, Scott Robinson, Sean Conlon, J Brown, and Abz Love (the latter two no longer performing with the group), their unique blend of pop, R&B, and hip-hop influences set them apart from their peers. Unlike many of their contemporaries, Five embraced a more rugged, streetwise image, delivering catchy choruses with an edge that resonated with millions worldwide. Their debut album, Five, spawned hits like “Slam Dunk (Da Funk)” and “When the Lights Go Out,” immediately cementing their status.
Over their initial four-year run, Five achieved immense success, selling over 20 million records globally, securing eleven top 10 singles, and picking up a Brit Award for Best Pop Act. Iconic tracks such as “Everybody Get Up,” “Keep on Movin’,” and the infectious Queen collaboration “We Will Rock You” became synonymous with late 90s and early 00s pop culture. Their energetic stage presence and charismatic personalities made them a formidable live act. Today, the lineup of Ritchie Neville, Scott Robinson, and Sean Conlon continues to tour, bringing their enduring hits and boundless enthusiasm to fans who cherish their legacy, ensuring the spirit of Five lives on.
