Alternative Rock
For more than 30 years, Everclear’s Northwestern grunge-punk style, catchy hooks, and confession-style songwriting have established the band as the voice of a generation. Everclear has enjoyed a lengthy career by any measure, spanning 11 studio releases, millions of record sales, and a dozen Top 40 Hits, including “Santa Monica,” “Everything to Everyone” and “I Will Buy You a New Life.” Through raw and deeply personal lyrics, frontman Art Alexakis unflinchingly explores heavy themes of addiction, death, and parental abandonment, all the while proudly reflecting his musical influences of Bruce Springsteen, Tom Petty, and Elvis Costello.
