Spin Doctors is a New York City band that came together in 1988 and built a following in downtown clubs before signing to Epic Records in 1990. Singer Chris Barron, guitarist Eric Schenkman, drummer Aaron Comess and bassist Mark White made its early records, and its jam-band instincts drove the 1991 debut Pocket Full of Kryptonite, which produced the hits "Two Princes" and "Little Miss Can't Be Wrong." Later albums include Turn It Upside Down in 1994, You've Got to Believe in Something in 1996, Here Comes the Bride in 1999, Nice Talking to Me in 2005, If the River Was Whiskey in 2013 and Face Full of Cake in 2025. Grammy.com lists one nomination. Funky grooves, bluesy guitar and Barron's playful voice keep the band touring through festivals, theaters, casinos and private events.
