Though it started out as a modest, fun-loving Austin garage-pop band, Fastball made an unlikely whirlwind foray into '90s rock stardom, thanks to its 1998 album All the Pain Money Can Buy and its smash single, "The Way." A decade and several albums later, the band recently returned with Little White Lies. Click the link above to hear Fastball perform live in concert from WXPN and World Cafe Live in Philadelphia.
After its platinum-selling breakthrough — which spawned world tours, TV appearances and two Grammy nominations — Fastball has continued to work steadily while recording, performing and honing its infectious pop-rock sound. Little White Lies demonstrates the band's evolution, while retaining the radio-ready timelessness that's long been Fastball's trademark.
