REARVIEW MIRROR

About Me



Rearview Mirror was formed in the summer of 1998. We earned our chops playing dozens of live shows and began wring original material. Our first album Blown Out was released in the fall of 1999, gaining us the chance to showcase for major labels on both coasts and securing us the opportunity to record an album with Steve Lillywhite (U2, Dave Matthews, Rolling Stones). With the release of our second album All Lights Off in the summer of 2001 we were finally able to hear our music on the radio and spend time on tour with a number of national acts, including Live, Seven Mary Three, and Days of the New. We released our third album in the summer of 2003 and continued touring and writing. Taking sometime off from performing towards the end of 2004 we began work on what would become our 4th album. Pecking Order, released in the spring of 2006, is our most honest and accomplished record to date and we are delighted to be back on stage doing what we do best.
