The Presidents of the United States of America

About The Presidents of the United States of America

90s teens will always remember The Presidents of the United States of America for their hits "Lump" and "Peaches." Their upbeat, playful music hails from Seattle's moody grunge alternative rock scene. Where the rest of their Seattle brethren traded in heavy guitars and heavy angst, the Presidents rejected torment for humor, writing short, simple, and absurd punk songs that relied more on goofy attitude than sludgy riffs and tormented screams. Childhood friends Chris and Dave Dederer formed the Presidents of the United States of America in the early 90s. Drummer Jason Finn, a member of Love Battery, saw the duo in 1991 and joined the band in 1993. Within a year after Finn joined, the Presidents became one of the most popular bands in Seattle. The Presidents of the United States of America became a hit in the summer of 1995, when MTV and modern rock radio began airing "Lump" frequently. In December of 1997, the Presidents called it quits after Chris Ballew left the band to spend more time with his family. Late in 2007 the Presidents announced a new album, These Are the Good Times People, would be delivered in the spring of 2008.
