Five One Bio

Five One's songs are influenced by a range of artists, such as The Beatles, The White Stripes, A Tribe Called Quest, Bob Marley, and Bad Brains, and their music represents more than just a sound, but a lifestyle.

The trio's members, Blue, Red, and Green, are the personification of colors. By Personifying color they are not only artists but art itself, and represent a lack of emphasis on individual identity, and an emphasis on creating music that strives to speak for everyone. Five One has released one album in 2006, and since then has been releasing "Freetapes" every other month, accompanied by online videos and a variety of supplemental visual art. Their first video, "Active," was showcased on MTV2's Dewcircuit Competition which garnered them new fans and national exposure from commercial airplay.

With an eclectic style, constant reinvention with every song, and innovative live shows, Five One strives to define their art on their own terms, and to always surprise their fans and themselves.
