In 1987, the four original members of Blues Traveler—John Popper, Chandler Kinchla, Brendan Hill, and the late Bobby Sheehan—gathered in their drummer’s parent’s basement in Princeton, NJ, to jam. From these high school sessions emerged a band that would release 14 studio albums and counting, four of which have gone gold, three platinum, and one six-times platinum- selling more than 10 million combined units worldwide. Over an illustrious career, Blues Traveler has played over 2,000 live shows in front of more than 30 million people, and, in “Run-Around,” had the longest-charting radio single in Billboard history, which earned them a Grammy® for Best Rock Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals. Their movie credits include Blues Brothers 2000, Kingpin, Wildflowers, and others. A television favorite, they have been featured on Saturday Night Live, Austin City Limits, and VH1’s Behind the Music, and they have the record for the most appearances of any artist on The Late Show with David Letterman. Blues Traveler’s latest effort, 2021’s Traveler’s Blues, is nominated for a Grammy in the “Best Traditional Blues Album” category, bringing their 35+ year journey full circle.

Gin Blossoms is an American alternative rock band formed in 1987 in Tempe, Arizona. The band rose to prominence following the 1992 release of their first major label debut album, New Miserable Experience, and the first single released from that album, “Hey Jealousy,” became a Top 25 hit and went gold. New Miserable Experience eventually went quadruple platinum, and three other chart singles were released from the album, including “Allison Road” and “Un0l IFall Away”. The band’s follow-up album, Congratulations I’m Sorry(1996), went platinum, including the Grammy-nominated “As Long as It Ma]ers” and the top 10 single “Follow YouDown”. Gin Blossoms continues to tour every year and, in recent years, has shared the stage with Collective Soul, Barenaked Ladies, and Hootie & The Blowfish.
