Featuring the new single \"You're An Ocean\" and \"The Way\" Formed in 1994 in Austin, Texas, Fastball combined a fondness for melodic, Beatles-inspired pop with the alternative aesthetic of late-'90s mainstream rock Guitarist\/vocalist Miles Zuniga, bassist\/vocalist Tony Scalzo, and drummer Joey Shuffield -- all veterans of Austin's underground rock scene -- originally banded together under the name Magneto U.S.A. After signing a major label deal, the musicians changed their name to Fastball and released their debut album, Make Your Mama Proud, in 1996. The album demonstrated the band's synthesis of modern flavor and bygone pop hooks, a combination that would later launch Fastball into the mainstream. The follow-up effort, All the Pain Money Can Buy, appeared in early 1998, featuring a considerably tighter band and more pop flourishes. Although the bandmates were still working side jobs at the time of its release, lead-off single \"The Way\" proved to be a meteoric hit, topping the American rock charts for seven weeks while enjoying crossover success as a pop single. \"Fire Escape\" and the piano-fueled \"Out of My Head\" did similarly well, and All the Pain Money Can Buy went platinum within six months of its release, earning two Grammy nominations along the way. Fastball will be on tour for the remainder of 2023 and into 2024.
