BoDeans

BoDeans is a rock band formed in Waukesha, Wisconsin, between Madison, Wisconsin and Milwaukee, Wisconsin in 1983. In 1985, the band signed a contract with Slash Records and recorded their first album. Early on, the BoDeans' sound was largely influenced by roots rock and heartland rock, but they soon moved more into the genre of alternative rock. In the late 1980s and early 1990s, the band had several singles in the top 40 "mainstream rock" charts. In the mid-1990s, the band had two top 10 songs in the "Adult contemporary" charts. more »
