5 Years And Counting formed in St. Albans, Hertfordshire in 2003 with Daniel Campbell on vocals, Andy Knowles on guitar, Tom Knowles on bass, Adam Smith on guitar, and Dave Cooper on drums. Their song "Take Me Home" became a breakout hit that reached mainstream audiences.
In 2010, the band faced criticism for a music video for "Fall for You" that depicted domestic violence scenes, which they later apologized for and removed. Lead singer Daniel Campbell was arrested for drug possession in 2015, leading to some festival cancellations.
They released albums like "A Life Redefined" in 2007 and "Beneath the Surface" in 2011, working with rock, pop, and folk elements. The band won several awards including a Brit Award for Best British Breakthrough Act in 2007.
