Oleander emerged from Sacramento’s alt-rock scene and quickly became a defining voice in modern rock. Their gold-certified major-label debut, February Son, delivered the breakout anthem “Why I’m Here,” which climbed to #1 at rock radio, dominated airwaves nationwide, and appeared on Dawson's Creek. The band’s momentum carried them to major stages including Woodstock '99, while “I Walk Alone” expanded their reach with a placement in American Pie and Scary Movie.
Follow-up releases Unwind and Joyride solidified their reputation for soaring hooks, emotional intensity, and high-impact live performances. Their return with Something Beautiful marked a renewed creative chapter — fueled by perspective, grit, and the same melodic punch that first put them on the map.
As ’90s alternative rock surges back into the cultural spotlight, Oleander stands at the intersection of legacy and momentum — delivering timeless anthems that resonate with longtime fans and a new generation discovering modern rock’s golden era.
