Gin Blossoms are an alternative pop/rock band formed in 1987, in Tempe, Arizona. They took their name from a photo of W.C. Fields which bore the caption "W.C. Fields with gin blossoms," referring to the actor's gin-ravaged nose. The band, who were musically weaned on The Byrds and Tom Petty, released three albums and had several hits in the mid 1990s, before breaking up in 1997. The band reunited in 2002, touring, releasing a DVD, and promising a fourth album, Major Lodge Victory which is due to be released on August 8, 2006 on the Hybrid Recordings label.
