Gin Blossoms

From the band's breakthrough album, New Miserable Experience through to its powerful follow-up Congratulations…I'm Sorry and such enduring and memorable songs as "Hey Jealousy," "Allison Road," "Follow You Down" and "Til I Hear It From You." Since Robin Wilson, guitarists Jesse Valenzuela and Scott Johnson and bassist Bill Leen reunited as the Gin Blossoms in 2002, the idea of recording new songs was something the group thought about but didn't want to force. "I wanted it to happen organically," Valenzuela says. "And it did."

Successful tour dates demonstrated that the many fans who cherished New Miserable Experience (which has sold more than four million copies in the U.S.) and Congratulations…I'm Sorry (which has sold more than one million) were still eager to hear more from the band. So were their younger brothers and sisters. "I didn't even know if we could get back together," Leen says. "I didn't know we'd have a fan base. I think it helped that our songs never left the radio."

"An effortless Triumph of melodic perfection" - BillBoard
