You’ve Got to Believe in Something

Spin Doctors

Elastic bass lines and gritty blues-rock swagger. A mid-90s snapshot of a jam-band finding a harder edge while keeping their signature rhythmic bounce.

Find on Amazon

It’s the Spin Doctors with more grit, more bass, and a Biz Markie cameo you didn't know you needed.

A gritty, high-energy blend of bar-band soul and restless mid-90s alternative rock.
