About LFO
LFO are an American pop and hip hop band formed in 1995 and consisted of singers Brad Fischetti , Rich Cronin , and Brian "Brizz" Gillis . In 1998, Gillis left the group and was replaced by Devin Lima . The group disbanded after Cronin's death in 2010 but briefly reunited in 2017 before Lima's death a year later.
LFO's single "Summer Girls" reached number 3 on the Billboard Hot 100, and the band has sold over four million records worldwide.
In 1995, New Bedford, Massachusetts, Rich Cronin and Brad Fischetti met Brian "Brizz" Gillis. LFO had marginal success with the remake of the Yvonne Elliman song "If I Can't Have You", which missed the Top 40, reaching No. 54 on the UK Singles Chart. In 1997, they released a cover of the 1990 New Kids on the Block hit "Step By Step" as a single. In 1999, Gillis left the group to pursue a solo career. Gillis died of undisclosed causes on March 29, 2023, at age 48.
They appeared on The Amanda Show as guest stars, singing a song while Amanda Bynes danced in the background with the show's signature "dancing lobsters". At the end, LFO described Amanda as "the most beautiful girl in the world".
In the summer of 2001, the group released their sophomore and final album, Life Is Good, with the release of only two singles "Life Is Good" and "Every Other Time", which was the only commercial release from the album.
After lackluster record sales of the album and the late-1990s/early-2000s boyband trend nearing its end, LFO parted ways in February 2002. Brad Fischetti recalled years later that the band didn't end initially on good terms. "When we walked out of the room in 2002, it was like a weight was lifted off of our shoulders."
