Ben Folds Five

Ben Folds Five was a piano-based rock trio formed in 1993 in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. The group was comprised of Ben Folds on vocals, piano, and principal songwriting; Robert Sledge played bass and provided backing vocals; and Darren Jessee played drums, sang backing vocals and co-wrote some of the songs. The group achieved modest success in the alternative, indie and pop music scenes. The band is perhaps best known for the hit single, "Brick" from their 1997 album Whatever and Ever Amen, which gained airplay on many mainstream radio stations.   Wikipedia
