The girls are Ally, Camila,Normani, Dinah and Lauren. Their fans are called Harmonizers. Their original group name was

The LYLAS (Love You Like A Sister). When on tour, the girls were only

allowed five-minute showers in a scheduled order – yikes! In 2013 Camila admitted she hadn’t

been kissed yet! We’re pretty sure that changed when she datedAustin Mahone. As a kid Normani was an award-

winning gymnast and dancer. She also competed for Miss Texas and made it to the final round, but chose to do The X Factor instead. Lauren could type at an adult level

by third grade.

Fifth Harmony

They’re a band and not a solo singer as the name might suggest, though Lukas Forchhammer is the name of the frontman. The rest of the band comprises of Mark Falgren (drummer), Magnus Larsson (bass) and Kasper Daugaard (keyboard). Their sound has been described as the place ‘where

pop meets R&B’. The band’s most popular song, 7 Years, describes

growing up and aging at specific points in life (from7 years old to 60). The band has been huge in Denmark since 2012,

where their self-titled debut went platinum four times over. Their musical inspirations

include Dr Dre and Irish folk music from Forchhammer’s father’s roots, as well as The Beatles, The RollingStones, Gregory Isaacs, James Brown, Al Green and The Prodigy.

Twenty One Pilots Twenty One

Pilots is an American music duo thatoriginates from Columbus, Ohio. The band was formed in 2009 by

Tyler Joseph along with formermembers and university friends Nick Thomas and Chris Salih, and currently consists of vocalist / keyboardist Tyler as well as drummer Josh Dun. People battle to find a specific genre

to describe them since they bridge so many. However, some fans have labelled their genre as ‘Schizophrenic pop’ (also known as Schizoid pop), a subgenreof pop. According to the band, their purpose

for making music is to make people think as well as encourage them to find joy in what they come to believe in life. Tyler came up with the band’s name

while studying a play about a man who must decide what is best for his family after causing the death of 21 pilots duringWorld War II because he knowingly sent them faulty parts for the good of his business. Tyler explains that this storyof moral dilemma was the inspiration for the name of the band.
