The Wallflowers, an American rock band led by singer-songwriter Jakob Dylan, emerged from Los Angeles in 1989, originally forming as a roots rock group. Their self-titled debut album, released in 1992 under Virgin Records, garnered critical acclaim but struggled commercially. The band’s breakthrough came with their sophomore album, “Bringing Down the Horse” (1996), which produced hit singles like “One Headlight” and “6th Avenue Heartache.” This album achieved quadruple platinum status, solidifying their place in the rock genre.

Over the years, The Wallflowers have released several albums, including “(Breach)” (2000) and “Red Letter Days” (2002), showcasing their evolving sound and lyrical depth. The band won two Grammy Awards for “One Headlight,” which was also recognized as the Greatest of All Time Adult Alternative Song by Billboard. Their music often explores themes of nostalgia, heartache, and introspection, resonating deeply with audiences.

After a hiatus from 2006 to 2011, The Wallflowers returned with “Glad All Over” (2012), followed by “Exit Wounds” (2021), which received critical acclaim and marked a successful comeback. Throughout their career, they have sold over ten million albums worldwide, with numerous songs charting on Billboard’s Adult Alternative Airplay chart.

The Wallflowers continue to tour and perform, maintaining a dynamic presence in the music industry. Their recent activities include a reunion with former guitarist Michael Ward and plans to perform “Bringing Down the Horse” live in its entirety, demonstrating their enduring legacy and commitment to their art.
