Hailing from the San Francisco Bay Area, Counting Crows' success dates back to their 1993 debut album, August and Everything After, which featured their hit single "Mr. Jones." Subsequent albums include Recovering the Satellites (1996), which included the hit song "A Long December"; Across A Wire: Live in NY (1998); This Desert Life (1999) and Hard Candy (2002), which featured the band's Top 10 cover of Joni Mitchell's "Big Yellow Taxi". More recently, the band released the No. 1 hit "Accidentally In Love" which is featured on the Grammy and Golden Globe-nominated Shrek 2 soundtrack. Counting Crows has sold over 20 million records worldwide.
LIVE, a band that came of age in the early 90s, one of rock's most creative periods, remains intact. The same four guys who debuted at the middle school talent show in York, Pa. and saw the release of their debut album Mental Jewelry and their breakout follow up Throwing Copper, are still together making music 15 years later. LIVE has sold over 20 million CDs worldwide and has had numerous singles reach the Billboard charts including such hits as "Selling the Drama," "I Alone," "Lightning Crashes," "Lakini's Juice" "The Dolphin's Cry" and "Heaven."
Formed in the early 1990s, Collective Soul has enjoyed major popularity as a successful rock band for over a decade. Since the release of their first album Hints Allegations & Things Left Unsaid in 1994, Collective Soul has sold over 10 million CDs worldwide and has had 19 singles reach the Billboard charts including such hits as "Shine," "Gel," "Better Now," "December," "The World I Know," "Heavy," "Why Part 2," "Where the River Flows," "Precious Declaration," and "Listen."
