AJR
AJR is an American pop band founded by brothers Adam, Jack, and Ryan Met (né Metzger), collectively a trio of vocalists, multi-instrumentalists, and songwriters. The three brothers started the band in 2005 at a young age. AJR spent their early years busking, tap dancing and singing covers around New York City, and emerged from songwriting at their home studio, where they recorded and produced the album, Living Room (2015). In the 2010s and the 2020s, AJR has recorded over 100 songs and a live album and completed seven concert tours. Four of the headlining tours were separately supported by the studio albums: The Click (2017); the two US Billboard 200 top-ten albums Neotheater (2019) and OK Orchestra (2021); and The Maybe Man (2023). Music magazine Billboard ranked AJR as one of the 100 top-selling touring artists of 2024. The 2015 indie pop debut album yielded their first pop radio platinum single "I'm Ready", the 2017 electropop platinum album contained their first Billboard Alternative number-one song "Sober Up" (featuring Rivers Cuomo), and the 2021 orchestral pop gold album spawned—their first Hot 100 top-ten single and also the Billboard Music Award Top Rock Song—"Bang!". AJR is a multi-platinum band for having eight platinum singles—including the three aforementioned songs; "Weak"; "Burn the House Down"; "100 Bad Days"; "Way Less Sad"; and "World's Smallest Violin"—all these songs accounted for nineteen million certified units of their digital single sales in America.
