buffalo tom

Summary: Formed in Boston in 1987, Buffalo Tom is a band that epitomized the rise on indie guitar rock in the 1990s. However, while some of their peers such as Goo Goo Dolls rose to global prominence, Buffalo Tom had only limited commercial success, despite the consistently high quality of their records. While Buffalo Tom never 'officially' broke up, they took a seven year break, starting around 1999/2000.
