The group formed in 2000 and was composed of [[Peter Luts]], [[Dave McCullen]], and singer Evi Goffin. Peter Luts confirmed on Belgian radio in 2008 that Goffin was not returning to the group, after choosing to become a full-time mother. Luts announced around the same time that he was looking for a new vocalist for the group. Together with Belgian TV station [[JIM (Flemish TV channel)|JIMtv]], he organized a televised search (in similar fashion to talent shows like ''[[Idol series|Idol]]'') for a new vocalist, eventually choosing Jelle Van Dael as the singer.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://jim.be/v7/frontpage.php?id=1100|title=JIM Mobile|website=JIM Mobile|access-date=2008-07-13|archive-date=2008-07-13|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080713000807/http://jim.be/v7/frontpage.php?id=1100|url-status=live}}</ref> The group name came from McCullen suggesting something related to the United Kingdom, and creating Lasgo out of [[Glasgow]] in [[Scotland]].<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://nexus.radio/news/flashback-how-lasgo-wrote-something-that-changed-their-lives |title=Flashback: How Lasgo wrote “Something” that Changed their Lives |access-date=2023-06-19 |archive-date=2023-06-19 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230619164028/https://nexus.radio/news/flashback-how-lasgo-wrote-something-that-changed-their-lives |url-status=live }}</ref> Throughout their career, Lasgo have sold more than five million units of their albums ''[[Some Things]]'' and ''[[Far Away (Lasgo album)|Far Away]]'', and the singles from those albums.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.janvis.com/artist/lasgo/|title=Lasgo available for bookings worldwide|access-date=2016-09-18|archive-date=2016-09-19|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160919075606/http://www.janvis.com/artist/lasgo/|url-status=live}}</ref> Although the group has not officially disbanded, they have not released any material since 2013.
