Story:
The Wallflowers is an American rock solo project of American
singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Jakob Dylan. The Wallflowers
were originally a roots rock band formed in Los Angeles in 1989 by Dylan and
guitarist Tobi Miller. The band has gone through a number of personnel
changes but has remained centered on Dylan.
Following their eponymous debut album in 1992, the Wallflowers released what
would become their best-known and highest-selling album, Bringing Down the
Horse (1996), which included the U.S. radio hit "One Headlight," as well as
"6th Avenue Heartache," "The Difference," and "Three Marlenas." Their next
album, (Breach) (2000), contained "Sleepwalker," their only single to chart
the Billboard Hot 100 at number 76 (previous singles did not chart due to
Billboard rules at the time). The group released an additional two
critically acclaimed albums before going on hiatus. In 2012, the Wallflowers
reunited to release their sixth studio album, Glad All Over. Nearly ten
years later they released their seventh studio album, Exit Wounds (2021),
which charted at number 3 on Billboard's Top Album Sales. Lyrically, the
band focuses on Dylan's introspection, exploring themes of nostalgia,
heartache, anxiety, purpose and insecurities.
The Wallflowers have sold over five million albums and have won two Grammy
Awards: Best Rock Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal and Best Rock
Song for "One Headlight" in 1998. "One Headlight" is also listed at #58 in
Rolling Stone's list of the 100 Greatest Pop Songs. The Wallflowers have
been nominated six times for "Best Rock Song" and "Best Rock Performance."
Billboard named "One Headlight" as the #1 Greatest of All Time Adult
Alternative Song. The band has thirteen songs that have reached the 'Top 10'
on Billboard's Adult Alternative Airplay list. Members of The Wallflowers
have gone on to be in the Foo Fighters, Ozomatli, and Gogol Bordello; two
former members have been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
