Pearl Jam Biography
🎤 Pearl Jam
Pioneers of Grunge and Champions of Artistic Integrity
Pearl Jam is an American rock band formed in Seattle, Washington, in 1990. Emerging from the grunge movement, they quickly rose to prominence with their debut album Ten, and have since maintained a steadfast commitment to their music and principles, becoming one of the most enduring and influential bands in rock history.
🌟 About Pearl Jam
The band originated after the disbandment of Mother Love Bone, following the death of lead singer Andrew Wood. Guitarist Stone Gossard and bassist Jeff Ament recruited Mike McCready (lead guitar), Eddie Vedder (lead vocals), and Dave Krusen (drums) to form Pearl Jam. Their debut album, Ten (1991), featured hits like "Alive," "Even Flow," and "Jeremy," propelling them to international fame. Despite their success, Pearl Jam took a stand against the commercialization of music, notably boycotting Ticketmaster over ticket pricing practices. Over the years, they've released multiple albums, including Vs., Vitalogy, Yield, and Gigaton, each showcasing their evolving sound and commitment to social issues. AllMusic

Expand Full Bio
Pearl Jam recorded their debut album, Ten, in the beginning of 1991, Pearl Jam fused the riff-heavy stadium rock of the '70s with the grit and anger of '80s post-punk, without ever neglecting hooks and choruses; 'Jeremy,' 'Evenflow,' and 'Alive' fit perfectly onto album rock radio stations looking for new blood. The group refused to release any videos or singles from their second album, 1993's Vs. Nevertheless, it was another multi-platinum success, debuting at number one and selling nearly a million copies in its first week of release.
Vitalogy, the band's third album, appeared at the end of 1994. For the first two weeks, the album was only available as a limited vinyl release, but the record charted in the Top 60. Once Vitalogy was available on CD and cassette, the album shot to the top of the charts and quickly went multi-platinum. In late summer of 1996, Pearl Jam released their fourth album, No Code. Although the album was greeted with fairly positive reviews and debuted at number one. The group returned in 2000 with the Tchad Blake-produced Binaural.t. Riot Act, a muscular -- and critically lauded -- collection of new songs that found the group dabbling in experimental art rock, was released in 2002. Two anthologies arrived in 2003 and 2004, Lost Dogs: Rarities and B Sides and Rearviewmirror: Greatest Hits 1991-2003. They were followed in 2006 by the eponymous (and all-new) Pearl Jam, a number two hit on the album charts. As the band's 20th anniversary loomed on the horizon, Pearl Jam launched a series of album reissues, beginning with a deluxe version of Ten in 2009. That same year also saw the release of their ninth studio album, Backspacer, which doubled as the group's first independently released project, initially appearing exclusively in Target stores in the U.S. The band supported the album with an extensive 2010 tour. Live on Ten Legs, a collection of concert highlights from 2003-2010, appeared in January 2011. Later that year, Vedder released a solo album of standards accompanied only by ukulele.3
