Musical career

[edit]

2017–2019: Career beginnings

[edit]

Accusefive was founded in April 2017 by Pan, Tsai, and Lin, in Yilan County, Taiwan.[1] Tsai and Pan both attended National Yilan Senior High School and are in a relationship.[2] The band's name doesn't have a special meaning. Rather, the three characters of the Chinese name ("accuse", "five" and "people") were chosen by each band member randomly pointing to a word on bulletin board.[2]

The band released its first mini-album, Son of Mist, in October 2017. They won Best New Artist at the 9th Golden Indie Music Awards.[3]

2019–2022: Recognition

[edit]

Their 2019 album, Somewhere in Time, I Love You, was nominated for Best New Artist and Best Band at the 31st Golden Melody Awards in 2020.[2] Their 2020 Album, Easy Come, Easy Go, was nominated for Best Band at the 32nd Golden Melody Awards in 2021.

2023–present: Continued success
