Plain White T’s broke out of Chicago’s thriving ‘00s emo underground by pulling a rather un-punk move: releasing one of the decade’s sweetest odes to young love with 2007’s warm, strings-laden embrace, “Hey There Delilah.” Like Green Day’s acoustic smash “Good Riddance (Time of Your Life)” a decade prior, the bubblegum ballad exposed the soft, melodic middle of a band rooted in bright, bouncy pop-punk. It helped lift them out of Illinois, where they formed in 1997 and self-released two albums before signing to Fearless Records. The indie punk label released their 2005 full-length, All That We Needed, a frenetic set of fidgety power-pop, punctuated by the aforementioned “Hey There Delilah.” For their Hollywood Records debut, 2007’s Every Second Counts, the band re-recorded that track, lacing it in syrupy strings, and suddenly found themselves at the top of the charts. Proving it was no fluke, they’d return a year later with “1, 2, 3, 4,” an equally sentimental heartwarmer. Love—in all its sadness and splendor—has remained singer/guitarist Tom Higgenson’s greatest muse, as the band continues to stretch its wings beyond romantic ballads and pogo-bopping rhythms. Their catalog has become an eclectic grab bag—including giddy folk-pop romps (“Rhythm of Love,” “Dance Off Time”), carnivalesque rock experiments (“Welcome to Mystery”), and throbbing electro-pop anthems (“Light Up the Room”)—all while they preserve the youthful punk pluck of their beginnings.
Members of Plain White T's include, or have included, Tim Lopez, Dave Tirio, and De'mar Hamilton.
