Blue October at The Stage AE

The mid 90's to 2000's alt-rock scene was hotbed that erupted post-grunge, alternative rock bands. Blue October was one of the many bands that came out, but they're undeniably one of the chosen few who created an impact, a force that shaped the face of rock music as we know today.

Founding member, lead vocals and guitarist Justin Furstenfeld and violinist Ryan Delahoussaye are the band's core members who got together in Houston, Texas, recruiting its original member line-up which include: Jeremy Furstenfeld on drums, bassist Matt Noveskey, and lead guitarist Brant Coulter. Their 1998 debut album "The Answers, was a moderate success but it earned the band a loyal fan base, and got the attention of major labels which brought about the release of their sophomore album "Consent to Treatment." The album gave them another taste of success but still not enough to sustain support from their record label. Not one to back down, the band persisted and at the onset of the year 2000, their top 40 hits like "Hate Me" and "Into the Ocean," plus groundbreaking appearances on Jimmy Kimmel Live and The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, gave them enough exposure to fans that propelled them to the high altitudes on the alternative music rock stratosphere. The band has spawned eleven top 40 singles from they seven studio album releases. As they brought on the hits, Blue October continue to attract large crowds up to this day.
