In 1999, Sixpence None the Richer nearly topped the Billboard Hot 100 with “Kiss Me.” The Grammy-nominated song, which was used to great effect in the TV drama Dawson’s Creek and the teen movie She’s All That, embodied a magical folk-pop alchemy: Cofounder Leigh Nash cooed romantic lyrics in a lilting, sugar-spun voice above chiming guitar riffs from the song’s writer (and fellow band cofounder), Matt Slocum. Formed in Texas in the early ’90s, Sixpence None the Richer first found a niche in the Christian-music world on the strength of albums like its 1994 debut, The Fatherless & the Widow, and 1995’s alt-rock-leaning single “Within a Room Somewhere.” Several years later, the success of “Kiss Me” and a jangly cover of The La’s classic “There She Goes” propelled the band’s 1997 self-titled effort into the secular-music mainstream, a position Sixpence None the Richer embraced with an earnest cover of Crowded House’s “Don’t Dream It’s Over” and the Sundays-esque “Breathe Your Name.” The group’s recorded output slowed considerably in the early 2000s, although touring and efforts like 2023’s jolly holiday tune “Ring, Ring the Bells” keep Sixpence from the nostalgia circuit.
