Fascination formed in Los Angeles in the late 1990s, with Anya on vocals, Ethan on guitar, Jake on bass, and Mark on drums. Their debut album came out in 2001, and its lead single "Wasn't Love" became a hit. That song, along with others like "Corazón Salvaje" and "Remember," helped build them an audience.
Anya's lyrics and public statements sometimes stirred debate, and around their second album there were plagiarism accusations that the band denied. They kept releasing records through the 2000s and into the 2010s, putting out albums like "Forbidden Fruit," "Whispers of the Heart," and "Phoenix Rising."
On stage and on record, Anya's voice carried the songs while Ethan's guitar work shaped their sound. They never really stopped being a band that some people loved and others argued about.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
