One of the stars who most defines the current generation is Michael Clifford. He is the lead guitarist for the pop-rock group “5SOS,” in addition to being its spokesperson and public face. When the band started posting music videos and cover songs to YouTube, they gained attention. Luke Hemmings, Calum Hood, and Ashton Irwin, the other band members, have helped Michael alter his career by breaking down barriers using solely social media to achieve global recognition. With supporters from all over the world, this Australian singer is a tremendous sensation on social media. On Twitter, he has 7.67 million followers, and he has 4.7 million Instagram fans. The group has 3.6 million subscribers and more than 600 million views on their collective YouTube channel, where they post music videos.

The Epic Ascent to Stardom

At school, Michael met Luke and Calum. Since they shared a love of music, they frequently hung out together and gradually started writing songs. The group would upload its renditions of well-known performers like Chris Brown and Mike Posner to Luke’s YouTube page. They soon attracted 600k, then a million, views for their videos. Irwin was a part of the band when it was finally founded in 2011. Their band was now complete with 3 guitarists and a drummer thanks to Irwin, a drummer.

They started making music videos and promoting them on Facebook and Twitter. One Direction’s Louis Tomlinson came upon their music video by chance, liked the group, and published a link to their video on social media. They collaborated with renowned composers and songwriters to produce their music and lyrics, which helped them become internationally famous. They even obtained a contract with Sony ATV Music Publishing.

Their tracks quickly rose to the top 20 of the Australian and New Zealand music charts. They took the stage as One Direction’s opening act in 2013, and afterward released their single, “She Looks So Perfect.” Their self-titled debut album, which was released in 2014, got excellent reviews, helped launch the young band’s career and earned them a prize from the UK-based “Kerrang” magazine.
