Re-envisioning what pop can be in the 21st century, AJR unassumingly emerged as a ubiquitous hit-making outlier and one of the biggest indie bands in the world. Since 2012, the multi platinum indie pop trio—Adam [bass, vocals], Jack [vocals, guitar], and Ryan [ukulele, piano, vocals]—have generated billions of streams and earned one triple-platinum single, one double-platinum single, four platinum singles, and one platinum album. 2019's Neotheater marked their biggest first-week debut, bowing at #8 on the Billboard Top 200, #1 on the Top Alternative Albums Chart, and #1 on the Top Rock Albums Chart. Cemented as part of the modern zeitgeist, Spotify touted "Sober Up" [feat. Rivers Cuomo] among the "Best Rock Songs of the 2010s," while Apple
Music included "Weak" on its "Best Alt Songs of the 2010s." Not to mention, they remain one of the "500 Most-Listened to Artists" on Spotify.
On the heels of Neotheater, they dropped the 2020 platinum blockbuster "BANG!", which cracked the Top 10 at three radio formats, peaking at No. 6 on the Top 40 chart, No. 2 on Alternative radio and No. 1 on Adult Pop and marked their first Top 10 entry on the Billboard Hot 100. Their latest album, The Maybe Man [AJR Productions/Republic Records], was released in 2023. The title character is "a big sad superhero who is always questioning who he is" - like a giant out of your favorite fairy tale), emotion hangs over his head, so it doesn't have to hang over yours. Last summer, AJR embarked on The Maybe Man Tour, their first-ever arena headline tour, treating over 500,000 fans to a state-of-the-art production that included multiple larger-than-life 3D optical illusions. The band performed to over 40 sold-out shows across the country, including two nights at their hometown arena, Madison
Square Garden.
