Dishwalla are marvels for a number of reasons, not the least of which is their ability to write music that elevates the personal to the universal. Their signature sound--a swirling blend of softly curved melodies and resonating guitars--is rich with images that connect with subtle emotional power and stunning musical clarity
      The Santa Barbara-based band made quite the splash a few years back with "Pet Your Friends," a provocative mix of pop savvy and soulful rock grind. Fueled by the smash hit single "Counting Blue Cars," the album blazed onto the pop charts and blanketed rock radio, with the video garnering heavy play on MTV and VH1. The group toured extensively in support of the record, including jaunts with Sheryl Crow, Blind Melon and the Goo Goo Dolls, while also appearing on nationally televised programs such as "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno" and "Late Night With Conan O'Brien."
       Recalls vocalist J.R. Richards, "After a slow start, things just happened all at once. I remember playing at the Billboard Music Awards and realizing how far we had come. The year before, we were still working day jobs or going to school, then there we are playing on this television show in front of millions of people with guys like L.L. Cool J and Rod Stewart sitting in the front row. It was completely surreal."
