By blending contemporary power pop with elements of the post-grunge era, Gin Blossoms briefly emerged as torchbearers of the lighter side of alternative rock. Bassist Bill Leen and guitarist Doug Hopkins formed the band in 1987 in Tempe, AZ, rounding out the initial lineup with vocalist Jesse Valenzuela, guitarist Richard Taylor, and drummer Chris McCann.

The following year saw several personnel shifts as the band struggled to solidify — McCann was replaced by Dan Henzerling (and, shortly thereafter, Phillip Rhodes), while Taylor was fired and replaced by guitarist Robin Wilson. Wilson and Valenzuela subsequently switched roles, and the band recorded a self-released album, Dusted, in 1989. A&M signed them the following year.

After an impressive debut EP, 1991’s Up & Crumbling, the Gin Blossoms rocketed out of the college pop charts and into the mainstream with their 1993 hit single “Hey Jealousy.” Combining the ringing guitar hooks of the Byrds and R.E.M. with a solid, rootsy drive, the band’s breakthrough full-length album, New Miserable Experience (which had actually been released the previous year), was filled with songs equally as strong as “Hey Jealousy,” including the second hit single, “Found Out About You.” New Miserable Experience and its assorted singles dominated radio and MTV for the following year — “Hey Jealousy” and “Found Out About You,” both penned by Hopkins, remained in heavy radio rotation nearly a year after their initial release — and such success pushed the sales of their debut album to over one million copies.
