Background notes

Archive material and source history

The Plain White T's formed in Chicago in 1997, with Tom Higgenson, Mike Retondo, and Dave Tirio joining up with Tim Lopez and Steve Mast. They started out playing punk rock but gradually moved toward a more melodic style. Their third album, 'Every Second Counts' from 2006, included 'Hey There Delilah,' which became a massive hit and topped the Billboard Hot 100.

After that breakthrough, they put out albums like 'Big Bad World' in 2008 and 'American Nights' in 2015. Steve Mast left the band in 2008. Their songs often lean into straightforward pop-rock with earnest lyrics, as heard in tracks like '1, 2, 3, 4' and 'Come Back To Me.'
