Formed by John Rzeznik and Robby Takac in Buffalo during 1986, Goo Goo Dolls have quietly broken records, contributed a string of staples to the American songbook, connected to millions of fans, and indelibly impacted popular music for three-plus decades. Beyond selling 15 million records worldwide, the group has garnered four Grammy nominations and nearly a dozen Platinum and Gold singles combined, and seized a page in the history books by achieving 15 No. 1 and Top 10 hits. As a result, they hold the all-time radio record for most Top 10 singles.

Thus far, “A Boy Named Goo” (1995) has gone two-times-Certified Platinum, “Dizzy Up The Girl” (1998) five-times-Certified Platinum, and “Gutterflower” (2002) and “Let Love In” (2006) are both Certified Gold. In addition, “Something for the Rest of Us” (2010) and “Magnetic” (2013) bowed in the Top 10 of the Billboard Top 200.

The band’s “Summer Anthem” EP is out now via Warner Records. Consisting of seven tracks, “Summer Anthem” is a precise, hard-hitting project, featuring the type of vivid lyricism that’s led the band to becoming one of the most influential alternative rock groups of all time.
