Their self-titled 1977 debut brought them national attention, with critic Gene Sculatti hailing it as the best pop album of the decade. Over time the band has released numerous records while collaborating with Todd Rundgren, Kevin Gilbert, and most recently Chuck Prophet. They have built an international following, sharing stages with Elvis Costello and Tom Petty. Their music has appeared in films and television, they made their TV debut on Dick Clark’s American Bandstand, performed the title theme for Revenge of the Nerds, and their Top 40 single I Think We’re Alone Now opened the third season of the Netflix comedy Sex Education. Now signed to Yep Roc Records, home to artists such as Nick Lowe, Dave Alvin, and Chuck Prophet, the group continues to bring power pop to audiences across the United States, Europe, and Japan.
