Forming in the late ‘80s, Better Than Ezra rose to the top of the charts with their single “Good” from their indie debut album Deluxe. Thanks to the immense popularity of the song, Better Than Ezra quickly built a solid fan base that has weathered the band’s popularity roller-coaster.

After a series of critically acclaimed albums on Elektra, the group returned to their indie roots in 2001 when they signed to Beyond Music. Even though it’s been three years between Closer and the album prior, How Does Your Garden Grow?, Better Than Ezra have managed to remain a steady fixture on the touring machine.

Recent outings have seen them headlining with the likes of Sixpence None The Richer, Jeremy Toback, Jude, Train and The Push Stars in support slots. Although 2000 was more quiet for the band than the previous years, they still managed to sneak in a few club dates between recording sessions.
