ST Guessing Game: I just bought tickets for a band that had a HUGE international hit in the early 90s (you've likely all heard)

Posted by JaxSean (aka JaxSean) Apr 13 '23, 13:16

and they're coming to tour about 10 dates in the US over the summer. I just happened to see them pop up in my feed (because someone else commented on their post).

I saw them in the 90s in Boulder, CO (with Soho opening for them - they sang "Hippy Chick"), and could probably be a "one hit wonder."

Any guesses?
