German pop group Bro'Sis, consisting of Ross Antony, Hila Bronstein, Shaham Joyce, Faiz Mangat, Indira Weis, Giovanni Zarrella, has released three studio albums, one video album and ten singles. Formed in late 2001 on Popstars – Du bist mein Traum, the second season of the German adaption of the television talent show Popstars, the band released their debut single "I Believe" in December 2001. Selling a record-breaking 800,000 copies in its first week,[1] it debuted atop the singles charts in Austria, Germany, and Switzerland.[2] Parent album Never Forget (Where You Come From), released in January 2002, debuted at number one on both the Austrian and German Albums Chart and was eventually certified 2× Platinum by the Bundesverband Musikindustrie (BVMI) for shipments figures of over 600,000 copies.[3] It also reached Gold status in Austria and Switzerland and produced three further top ten hits, including "Do You", "Heaven Must Be Missing an Angel" and reissue single "Hot Temptation."[4][5]
In May 2003, only a few days before the release of the group's second studio album Days of Our Lives, Weiss announced her departure from the band.[6] With the five remaining members continuing as a quintet, the album debuted and peaked at number ten on the German Albums Chart.[2] Its first single, double A-side "Oh No"/"Never Stop," became another top ten hit in Germany, while follow-up "V.I.P." peaked at number 19 on the German Singles Chart.[2] Bro'Sis' third and final album, Showtime was released in August 2004. Commercially less successful, it failed to chart in Austria and Switzerland but peaked at number 24 on the German Albums Chart.[2] The album produced two singles, including "U Build Me Up," which marked the band's eighth consecutive top 20 hit in Germany.[2] In 2005, the band announced a minor hiatus that was later revealed to be an official break-up.[7]
