Take 5 (band)

Take 5 (band)

Take 5 was an American boy band from Orlando, Florida.

Take 5 was one of the many groups whose formulation and promotion were due to the machinations of promoter Lou Pearlman, and all of the members had had prior experience in the entertainment industries. [http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=11:kpfrxqq5ldfe~T1 Take 5] at Allmusic] Member TJ Christofore had won Star Search in 1995 and had appeared on Broadway in "Les Miserables". Steve Schulthorpe was previously a model, commercial actor, and theater performer; brothers Ryan and Clay Goodall were both trained pianists and also had experience in commercials and theater. Tilky Jones had played drums in a ska punk group called User Friendly.

Throughout 1998 and 1999, Take 5 released singles in Europe and Asia and toured in both regions. Their debut full-length was released in mid-2000 on Elektra. While the album charted in the United States, peaking at #26 Billboard Heatseekers, [ [http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=11:kpfrxqq5ldfe~T5 Billboard] , Allmusic.com] the group failed to match the success of Pearlman's other outfits such as Backstreet Boys and *NSync. They never released another album.

Tim Christofore later alleged that Pearlman had made untoward sexual advances toward band members.citeweb
