The Dave Matthews Band’s debut album Under the Table and Dreaming, released on September 27, 1994, introduced the band’s special blend of rock, jazz, and folk. The breakout single “What Would You Say” featured John Popper on harmonica, but other singles like “Ants Marching” and “Satellite” were also receiving heavy radio play. Produced by Steve Lillywhite, the album is acoustic-driven with much added flair from Tim Reynolds’ guitar playing. The album was dedicated to Anne, Dave Matthew’s sister; it went on to attain sextuple platinum status by the year 2000, hence securing the band a spot within 90’s rock history. Still staying great with its timeless grooves and introspective lyrics, it is one of the band’s favorites among fans.

Crash is the second studio album by the Dave Matthews Band, released on April 30, 1996 and their best-seller to date. The album has gone septuple platinum, courtesy of the RIAA, and has sold more than seven million copies since 2000. Crash was recorded between October 1995 and January 1996 and includes hits such as “Crash into Me” and “So Much to Say.” The complex blend of rock, jazz, and jam-band elements earned both praise and criticism. The critics were impressed with the technical talent the band showed, as well as their innovation, but found Dave Matthews’ vocals and lyrics a little divisive. But the Crash album did nail the band’s standing in 90’s rock.

It touched on several personal, as well as socio-political, topics, most notably war and the Native Americans’ situation. Cuts like “The Last Stop” and “Don’t Drink the Water” reveal this tone shift.

The band re-recorded the songs with producer Stephen Harris and gave them a more rounded and upbeat feel.

The album opened at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, extending the group’s run of chart-topping appearances.
