Hootie & The Blowfish, commonly known as just “Hootie”, is an American rock band formed in 1986 in South Carolina. Smile Band members are Mark Bryan, Jim Sonefeld, Darius Rucker, and Dean Felber. They achieved mainstream success beginning in 1994 with the release of their breakout album Cracked Rear View. The Smile band album went 16x Platinum and was one of the top 10 best-selling albums of all time at that point. Hootie & The Blowfish had a string of hits from this album such as "Hold My Hand”, “Let Her Cry” and “Only Wanna Be With You”. This success also included collaborations with other popular musicians such as Reba McEntire on the song “Not Even The Trees” from their 1996 follow-up album Fairweather Johnson. Throughout their career, they have been guests on popular television shows such as Saturday Night Live, Late Show with David Letterman, and MTV Unplugged. The band has also toured extensively across the United States and Canada throughout their career performing sold-out shows at a variety of venues.
One unique tie to their South Carolina home state is that they have yearly played a free show at USC Stadium in Columbia each year since 1994. Hootie & The Blowfish has been nominated for multiple Grammy awards during their career and won Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal for their smash hit single “Let Her Cry” back in 1995. The band had the most success during their first three albums, selling millions of records worldwide and touring extensively. After their fourth album was released in 1998, they took an extended break before eventually getting back together for a reunion tour in 2008. They have been active ever since then, recording the new Smile Band music and releasing it through different labels. Hootie & The Blowfish have become an iconic part of the music industry, with their influence spanning multiple generations. Their sound has been described as a mix between pop and rock, combining memorable melodies with driving rhythms.
