About the band

Fifth Harmony, often shortened to 5H, was an American girl group based in Miami, composed of Ally Brooke, Normani, Dinah Jane, Lauren Jauregui, and Camila Cabello until she departed from the group in December 2016. The group signed a joint record deal with Simon Cowell’s label Syco Records and L.A. Reid’s label Epic Records after forming and finishing third in the second season of the American singing competition series The X Factor in 2012. Rising to prominence by social media, the group’s debut extended play and their three studio albums all charted within the top ten of the Billboard 200 in the United States. 

In May 2018, they announced they’d be splitting up for some time to try to make it on their own in the music industry. They wrote in a statement on social media, “After six years going hard, non-stop, we also realized that to stay authentic to ourselves and to you, we do need to take some time, for now, to go on hiatus from Fifth Harmony to pursue solo endeavors.”
