It was the band’s second album in 1995 that earned the group its first #1 hit, “Santa Monica.” Several mainstream and alternative hits followed including “I Will Buy You a New Life,” “Father of Mine,” “Wonderful,” and “AM Radio.” Influenced by the Beach Boys, the Beatles, the Pixies, and Tom Petty, Everclear has released nine studio albums and continues touring every summer with other alternative rock bands from the 1990s. This year is the band’s 30th anniversary.
Lit formed in the 90s in Orange County, California, and has released seven studio albums including the one they are best known for “A Place in the Sun” in 1999. The album’s biggest hit, “My Own Worst Enemy” has been certified double-platinum by the RIAA, and has been covered by performers ranging from Kelly Clarkson to Post Malone to Jimmy Fallon.
