Sunny Day Real Estate and Real Estate

Seattle's Sunny Day Real Estate, formed in 1992, emerged distinctly from the grunge era with Jeremy Enigk's unique vocals and melodic tunes. Known for albums like "Diary" and "LP2," they experienced breakups and reunions, with members joining Foo Fighters and releasing ambitious projects like Enigk's "Return of the Frog Queen." Their 1998 reunion album, "How It Feels to Be Something On," earned acclaim, followed by "The Rising Tide." Despite disbanding in 2001, they briefly reunited in 2009-2010, with "Lipton Witch" released in 2014.

Formed in Ridgewood, Real Estate is known for their warm, hazy indie rock with breezy melodies and jangly guitars. Notable albums include 2014's Atlas and 2020's The Main Thing. Collaborations with Sylvan Esso's Amelia Meath and a style evolution have marked their journey. Band members have shifted over the years, with releases through labels like Woodsist and Domino Records.
