Brandon and Chris's Bio's

Most teens have a streak of fearlessness, but Jump5's Chris Fedun is especially daring. "Chris isn't afraid to try anything," says group-mate Libby. "He's the major gymnast in the group, and he doesn't even stretch!" Chris started playing sports when he was five, later switching gears after a memorable taste of the entertainment world. "I was on stage once at Opryland USA," he recalls. "That's where I realized I like getting in front of a crowd and seeing people smile." He studied voice, piano, guitar, and gymnastics, as well as jazz, tap, ballet and hip hop dancing. As for being in Jump5, Chris feels blessed every day. "We're really positive kids," he says. "We think anyone can listen to our music and get something out of it." In school, Chris excels in History. He also loves the recording studio, and hopes to expand into songwriting and production someday. For now he's content with the hectic pace of the group's schedule. "This is normal life for me," he laughs.

His friends in Jump5 call him "the shy one," but Brandon Hargest has the quiet confidence of a leader. "He's the brainiac," sister Brittany reveals. "And he's more sensitive than the rest of the group." True enough, but Brandon loves performing before huge audiences more than anything. How shy is that? Seeing Brittany light up the stage when they were very young was enough to convince Brandon to pursue the limelight too. Unleashing his natural talent, he quickly followed in her footsteps landing music videos, a gig at Opryland USA and television commercials-including a memorable spot for Garth Brooks' 1998 Double Live CD. Brandon's Jump5 experience has been nothing less than fantastic. "Now, we're even more mature," he says. "And when we perform, we love to see the audience reactions, to see kids having a good time and singing along." When not performing, Brandon can usually be found with a game boy in hand, a sketch pad ("I like to draw Japanese anime," he notes), or with his face buried in a book. As for spending his days with little sister in tow, Brandon has the right attitude. As he points out, "I never feel too far from home because I have someone from my family there."
