Hootie and the Blowfish Tickets

'Hootie and the Blowfish Tickets'

'

In 1994 and 1995, with songs like Only Wanna Be With You and Hold My Hand, Hootie & the Blowfish played on radio waves across the US and Canada. These became the songs of choice for many a driver's personal version of Carpool Karaoke throughout the mid-'90s. Many die-hard fans of the band Hootie & the Blowfish haven't forgotten the vocal stylings of lyric tenor Darius Rucker being backed by musicians Jim Sonefeld, Mark Bryan, Dean Felber and, occasionally, Brantley Smith. The band garnered huge success with its album

Cracked Rear View

, and in addition to Only Wanna Be With You and Hold My Hand rising to the top of the charts, songs like Time, Let Her Cry and Drowning all became popular tunes from that album. Seeing a Hootie & the Blowfish concert means a chance to sing along again like it's 1995.

'Will the Real Hootie Please Stand Up?'

'Many people mistakenly assume that the band's lead singer, Darius Rucker is the Hootie part of the Hootie & the Blowfish. However, the reality is no one in the band is Hootie. The band members nabbed the nicknames of two of their college friends, forever uniting the names Hootie and the Blowfish. The band was formed in 1986 and took a break in 2008 after decades of music. However, in 2018, Hootie & the Blowfish announced plans for a reunion tour.'
