History[edit]

Early years[edit]

Discography

Darius Rucker and Mark Bryan met when they were freshmen at the University of South Carolina in Columbia.[2] Bryan, a guitar player, heard Rucker singing in the showers of the dorm they shared and was impressed by his vocal ability. The pair began playing cover tunes as the Wolf Brothers.

Eventually they collaborated with bassist Dean Felber, a former high school bandmate of Bryan's, and Brantley Smith, a drummer, and soon adopted the name Hootie & the Blowfish in 1986. The name is a conjunction of the nicknames of two of their college friends.[3] Smith left the group after finishing college to pursue music ministry, but he has made scattered guest appearances with the band (he played cello on their MTV Unplugged performance in 1996, and played drums at Gruene Hall in Gruene, Texas, on June 27, 2008). Smith was replaced by Jim 'Soni' Sonefeld. The band's lineup has remained the same ever since.

The band independently released two cassette demo EPs in 1991 and 1992[citation needed]. In 1993, they pressed 50,000 copies of a self-released EP, Kootchypop. They were signed to Atlantic Records in August 1993, after being discovered by Atlantic A&R representative Tim Sommer, a former music journalist and member of the art rock band Hugo Largo.[4] Sommer recalled that other record labels were uninterested in signing Hootie & The Blowfish because their sound was radically different from the grunge music that was popular at the time.[4]

1994–1995: Cracked Rear View and mainstream success[edit]

Their mainstream debut album was Cracked Rear View (1994). Released in July 1994, the album's popularity grew after its release, becoming the best-selling album of 1995, and was one of the fastest-selling debut albums of all time. The album, which was certified platinum in the United States in January 1995 and incrementally rose to 12x platinum by January 1996 and 16x platinum by March 1999. In May 2019, the certifications level was updated from 16x platinum to 21x platinum.

The album featured four hits, 'Hold My Hand' (U.S. No. 10), 'Let Her Cry' (U.S. No. 9), 'Only Wanna Be with You' (U.S. No. 6), and 'Time' (U.S. No. 14).[5] The album's last single, 'Drowning', was not as successful as its predecessors, peaking only on the Mainstream Rock chart. In 1995, Hootie & the Blowfish and Bob Dylan reached an out-of-court settlement for the group's unauthorized use of Dylan's lyrics in their song 'Only Wanna Be with You'.[6]Miami Dolphins' Hall of Fame quarterback Dan Marino appeared in the band's video for the song 'Only Wanna Be with You', along with several other athletes.[7]

1996–1997: Fairweather Johnson and promotional singles[edit]

The band won the 'Best New Artist' award at the 1996 Grammy Awards. Hootie & the Blowfish appeared on MTV Unplugged on the eve of the release of their second album, Fairweather Johnson (1996). It contained the hit single 'Old Man and Me' (U.S. No. 13), and sold four million copies in the United States. Hootie & the Blowfish has since released three more studio albums: Musical Chairs, Hootie & the Blowfish and Looking for Lucky. They also released a B-sides and rarities compilation titled Scattered, Smothered and Covered (2000). This album is named in tribute of Waffle House, a popular Southern chain of all-night diners. Specifically, the title refers to an order of hash browns scattered on the grill, smothered with diced onions and covered with melted cheese.[8]

In 1995, Hootie & the Blowfish contributed the song 'Hey, Hey, What Can I Do' to the Encomium tribute album to Led Zeppelin. Their cover of Canadian group 54-40's 'I Go Blind', released on the soundtrack to the television series Friends in 1995, did not appear on Cracked Rear View or Fairweather Johnson, but became a hit on radio in 1996 after three singles from Fairweather Johnson had been released. Both 'Hey, Hey, What Can I Do' and 'I Go Blind' were later released on the compilation Scattered, Smothered and Covered.

1998–2008: Later years[edit]

The band in 2005

In 1998, they performed on Frank Wildhorn's concept album of the musical The Civil War.[9] The group covered the 1968 Orpheus hit 'Can't Find the Time' for the soundtrack of the Jim Carrey movie Me, Myself & Irene (2000). Orpheus creator and the song's writer Bruce Arnold traded verses with Darius on several occasions, when the band played live on the West Coast. The band had an extensive touring schedule, including an annual New Year's Eve show at Silverton Las Vegas (formerly known as Boomtown Las Vegas) in Enterprise, Nevada. In 2008, the band started releasing their concerts as downloads through trueAnthem.[10] In 2009, Hootie & the Blowfish performed live in a ballet which chronicled their rise and success in the 1990s.[11]

2008–2018: Hiatus and solo work[edit]

In 2008, Rucker announced in an AOL Sessions interview that Hootie & the Blowfish would be going on hiatus so Rucker could pursue his solo career as a country music performer. Although the band will no longer be recording or touring, Rucker confirmed that they will still perform their scheduled charity concerts, stating, 'We have four charity gigs every year and we will still do them, but we will not do a record or tour.'[12] Rucker also said that the split will last 'for five or six years, or until I record three or four country albums'. He later amended his statement, saying, 'To be honest with you, we're not even split up right now, and we're not really thinking about splitting up.'[13]

Rucker has recorded a solo album, Learn to Live, for Capitol Records. It includes the singles 'Don't Think I Don't Think About It', 'It Won't Be Like This for Long', 'Alright', all three of which have reached #1 on the U.S. Hot Country Songs chart, and 'History in the Making', which peaked at #3 on the U.S. Hot Country Songs chart. Rucker's second solo album Charleston, SC 1966 was released October 2010. A third solo album, True Believers, was released May 2013. That album included Rucker's cover version of the standard 'Wagon Wheel' which hit #1 on the US Hot Country singles chart and which was also a massive crossover pop hit. The Christmas-themedHome for the Holidays followed in 2014; and a fourth solo album, Southern Style, came out March 2015.

The band reunited for a one-time performance on the Late Show with David Letterman in the run-up to Letterman's retirement from the show in May 2015. That same year, in August, Darius Rucker said on The Today Show that the band members were working on new songs and would record a new album when they had enough material.[14] The band got together on occasion during their decade-long hiatus to play live shows, usually for charity, but they made no announcements regarding future albums or tours until December 2018.

2019: New album and tour[edit]

On December 3, 2018, the band announced the 44-city Group Therapy Tour with Barenaked Ladies in 2019 to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the release of Cracked Rear View. The tour is slated to begin on May 30, 2019 in Virginia Beach and end on September 13 in their hometown of Columbia, South Carolina. They have also signed a new record deal with UMG Nashville and will release a single in the spring of 2019 followed by a new studio album in the summer. Two songs have been referenced to be the lead-off single as of May, 2019 'Tiebreaker'and 'Worn Out Shoes (Brand New Soul)'[15][16]

Record label[edit]

In 1996, Hootie & the Blowfish started their own record label, Breaking Records, as a subsidiary of Atlantic. They had planned to focus on signing local Carolina acts. Edwin McCain and Cravin' Melon were associated with the label at one point, but did not release any material on it. The Meat Puppets, Jump, Little Children, Treadmill Trackstar and Treehouse released one album each on Breaking Records. The label folded in 2000.

Charity work[edit]

Hootie & the Blowfish have become known for their charity work. The entire band and crew traveled to New Orleans for five days of building houses in Musicians' Village, on October 16–20, 2006.[17] The band's members are avid golfers, and have sponsored the annual spring Monday After the Masters Celebrity Pro-Am Golf Tournament, benefiting local charities, since 1995.[18]

Hootie & the Blowfish toured through the Middle East and Europe supporting American troops during a USO tour. On December 5, 1998, Darius Rucker broke into an a cappella solo of the US National Anthem during the lowering of colors on board USS Enterprise (CVN-65), which was docked in Jebel Ali, United Arab Emirates. The band then played an extended concert for crew members of the aircraft carrier.[19]

From 2005 to 2009, Hootie & the Blowfish performed at the Animal Mission’s 'Party Animals' silent auction and concert to benefit the shelter animals in Columbia, South Carolina. Each year the event raised over $100,000 and allowed the organization to provide a free spay/neuter program for the Southern community’s pets. On October 18, 2008, Hootie & the Blowfish reunited to do a show at Incirlik Air Base in Turkey.

The band is a member of the Canadian charity Artists Against Racism and has worked with them on awareness campaigns like TV PSAs.[20]

Name[edit]

They routinely feature in articles and polls about badly-named bands.[21][22][23] In 2015 the Irish band Music for Dead Birds released a song titled 'Hooty and the Blowfish', a slight misspelling of the group's name.[24]

Musical style[edit]

Contrasting with the sound of their grunge contemporaries, the band's music was described as 'a mainstream pop variation of blues-rock' with 'equal parts of jam band grooves and MOR pop.'[25][26] The band's sound was also described as heartland rock,[27]roots rock[28] and jangle pop.[29]
