98 Degrees is a Grammy-nominated American boy band consisting of four vocalists: brothers Nick and Drew Lachey, Justin Jeffre, and Jeff Timmons. Some do not consider them a boy band because they were not created by a record producer, but instead joined together themselves.

The group was formed by Jeff Timmons in Los Angeles, but its members are all from Ohio. Unlike most vocal groups, they formed independently and were later picked up by a record label, as opposed to being assembled by a label or a producer (e.g. The Backstreet Boys ). They have sold over 10 million records and achieved 8 top 40 singles.
