10,000 Maniacs

For over 35 years, 10,000 Maniacs has been winning the hearts of music fans around the world, selling over 10 million records. Together with artists like R.E.M., they helped define “college rock” and the first wave of “alternative rock” bands with their pop-conscious, literate and lush aesthetic.

Their first album in 13 years, Music From The Motion Picture released in 2013, was hailed as a beautiful affirmation of the band’s classic poetic lyrics and dreamy Americana blend. Their latest release in 2015, Twice Told Tales, is a collection of traditional folk songs from the British Isles.
