An alternative rock band from Los Angeles that started in the early 2000s.
For a quick sense of their sound, 'Oxygen' and 'Born To Live' frame it well, rock with a pop edge and lyrics that lean personal. They're straightforward songs that don't overcomplicate things.
Songs like 'Oxygen' and 'Born To Live' blend rock and pop with lyrics that feel introspective, often touching on faith and personal struggles. Their 2003 debut set a tone for albums like 'In the Middle of Nowhere' in 2008, and they've kept releasing music through changes, including Jon Foreman's bipolar diagnosis in 2010. That mix of sound and sincerity gives their catalog a steady, grounded pull.
They began with a self-titled album in 2003, followed by 'Hear This' in 2005 and 'In the Middle of Nowhere' in 2008. Later releases like 'The Greatest Show on Earth' in 2012 and 'Living the Dream' in 2015 show they've kept at it, with a lineup that's included Foreman on vocals and guitar. The 2011 'Not the A-Sides EP' collected some of their work along the way.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
