Dave Matthews Band formed in 1991 and the band released it’s debut album, Under The Table and Dreaming, in 1994. The album produced five hit singles, and still stands as some of the band’s best work. The follow-up, 1996′s Crash, has been certified 7x platinum. It once again gave the band five hit singles, including the title track “Crash”, which is one of the biggest hits of their career. In 1998, Dave Matthews Band’s third album, Before These Crowded Streets, debuted at #1 on the Billboard Top 200 and sold over 421,000 copies in it’s first week of sales. In the new millennium, the band released their fourth album, Everyday, in 2001. Debuting at #1 on the Billboard Top 200, it spawned three smash-hit singles and sold an astonishing 755,000 copies in it’s first week of sales.
In 2011, Dave Matthews Band celebrated their 20th Anniversary with The Dave Matthews Band Caravan – a summer festival tour comprised of artists selected by the band. In 2012, the band co-headlined the Hangout Music Festival alongside Red Hot Chili Peppers and Jack White. That same year, they released their eighth studio effort, Away From The World. The disc debuted at #1 on the Billboard Top 200, giving the band their sixth consecutive number one album. Throughout their career, Dave Matthews Band has released 18 live albums. The band prides itself on it’s live performances and touring relentlessly, and their live recordings hold a special place in fans hearts. To date, the band has been nominated for three American Music Awards and fourteen Grammy Awards. In 1997, they won the Grammy for Best Rock Vocal Performance by Duo of Group for “So Much To Say”. – by Matt Bishop
