Plain White T’s

GRAMMY® Award-nominated, multi-platinum band Plain White T’s initiated their professional career with the release of their debut album, ‘Come On Over,’ in 2000. This was followed by the self-financed album ‘Stop’ in 2002, which led to their signing with Fearless Records. In 2005, the band released ‘All That We Needed,’ an album that notably featured the single ‘Hey There Delilah.’ Their subsequent signing with Hollywood Records in 2006 marked a significant period, culminating in the release of ‘Every Second Counts,’ which included a re-recorded version of ‘Hey There Delilah.’ This rendition became a global phenomenon, achieving number one on the Billboard Hot 100 chart for two consecutive weeks and earning platinum status by 2007. Its widespread success led to two prestigious Grammy Award nominations in 2008 for ‘Song of the Year’ and ‘Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals.’ Building on their momentum, Plain White T’s released ‘Big Bad World’ in 2008, an album that spawned the successful singles ‘1, 2, 3, 4’ and ‘Natural Disaster,’ both of which charted on American Top 40.

During this period, Plain White T’s maintained a significant public profile, including a performance at the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade in 2015 and a notable rendition of ‘Hey There Delilah’ at the Alternative Press Music Awards in 2017. They also closed the National Scout Jamboree in 2017, demonstrating their broad appeal. Beyond their music releases and live performances, the band has made various television appearances, providing theme music for ‘Greek’ and performing on ‘iCarly.’ Plain White T’s continued their dynamic trajectory into the 2020s, releasing six singles throughout 2023 in anticipation of their self-titled album, ‘Plain White T’s,’ which debuted in November 2023. Their enduring influence was further highlighted in 2024 with their cover of ‘Surface Pressure’ for the ‘A Whole New Sound’ compilation, cementing their continued relevance and adaptability within the music industry.
