Sean Kieran Conlon (born 20 May 1981) is an English singer and songwriter. He is best known as a member of boy band Five.
Early life
Conlon was born in Leeds, West Yorkshire, of Irish and Trinidadian descent and has four siblings. He grew up in Horsforth and attended St Mary's RC Primary School and St. Mary's Catholic High School, Menston. As a child his interests lay in becoming a record producer of soul music or playing rugby. He had his very first recording session aged eleven and, at the age of thirteen, performed for Harvey Goldsmith, Richard Skinner and Phil Collins after winning Yamaha's Young Composer Competition.
Career
= 1997–2002: Five
=In 1997, Conlon auditioned for Five, a new boy band-style group with "attitude and edge". He was eventually selected to be part of the band along with Abz Love, Ritchie Neville, Scott Robinson and Jason "J" Brown. Five subsequently were signed by Simon Cowell and BMG/RCA for a six-album deal. Five went on to enjoy massive success worldwide, selling over 20 million records in their four years. During the release of the third album, Kingsize, Conlon had a mental breakdown from stress and depression. Two weeks after the release of Kingsize, the band announced Conlon's departure. Conlon later admitted that having originally been "very confident and very outgoing" when the band started, he "became the insecure one" and "let the external environment destroy [him]".
In 2002 Conlon briefly signed with Sony BMG as a solo artist, but his debut album was never released and he was fired. Afterwards, Conlon took a long hiatus from his artistic career.
= 2012–present: Five return
=In March 2012, Conlon auditioned for the first series of The Voice UK, but he did not make it through to the next round as no coach chose him. In January 2013, Five returned to star the ITV2's reality show The Big Reunion. Brown didn't want to rejoin the group and Five announced that they were considering a new fifth member for the comeback, but withdrew to continue with the original four-member lineup. The band eventually decided to continue as a four-piece and they have been performing live touring Europe ever since.
Personal life
In Five's earlier days, Conlon was briefly engaged to dancer Suzanne Mole, who toured with the group. He is now married to a woman who prefers to remain anonymous. On 15 January 2014, it was announced that they were expecting their first child "any time soon". The following week, they welcomed their first child, a daughter.
