Robin Wilson–Lead Vocals & Guitar / Jesse Valenzuela–Vocals & Guitar, Scott Johnson–Guitar, Bill Leen–Bas
The Gin Blossoms have undoubtedly left their mark on the Rock music map.
The Grammy-nominated band's fusion of Melodic Rock, Pop, Folk and Country elements has helped pave the way for the modern Rock of today.
Fans around the world are very familiar with Gin Blossoms’ five-time Platinum breakthrough album New Miserable Experience, containing gems like “Until I Fall Away,” “Found Out About You,” “Hey Jealousy” and “Allison Road.”
Those hit tracks were followed up by the Empire Records Platinum Soundtrack hit, “Til I Hear It From You.” In 1996, the singles “Follow you Down” and “As Long As It Matters,” hit the radio again in a huge way, making their Congratulations I’m Sorry record another platinum success.
Gin Blossoms hits have crossed over in five different formats, taking the airwaves by siege, and held the MTV playlist captive for most of the 90s. Boasting record sales of over 10 million, the band continues to burn up the road performing over 120 tour dates per year.
And now participants at the 2020 Humana Rock 'n' Roll Arizona Marathon & 1/2 Marathon are in for a treat as the Gin Blossoms are ready to amplify your event experience as your featured 2020 Concert Series headliner!
