Like Blues Traveler, Dave Matthews Band and Hootie & the Blowfish, Vertical Horizon's dedication to the road has elevated them from a small-town band to a national act. In '92, the band (founded by Matt Scannell & Keith Kane) released their debut CD, There And Back Again, and took to the road non-stop, building it's following with a mix of crisp vocals and understated harmonies. The band's 3rd album (released in '97), was recorded over 2 sold-out nights at Ziggy's in Winston-Salem, NC.
