10,000 Maniacs

10,000 Maniacs was formed in Jamestown, NY, in 1981 by singer Natalie Merchant and guitarist John Lombardo. The group gigged extensively and recorded independently before signing with Elektra and releasing their debut in 1985. Co-founder Lombardo left the band in 1986, and they continued as a quintet, releasing three more albums. After 1992's Our Time in Eden had finished its run on the charts, Merchant announced that she was leaving for a solo career. The remaining 10,000 Maniacs decided to continue performing, adding the folk-rock duo John & Mary (original member Lombardo and violinist/vocalist Mary Ramsey). The new lineup released two albums before parting ways. ~ William Ruhlmann, Rovi

Wow bcmac87 knows so much about the 10,000 Maniacs;) hahaha ;-b
:-)♡
Another mistake on the bio is she announced leaving before the release of Eden. The Ramesy Maniacs were better anyway.
I have to agree with lindylv61, I grew up in J'town as well and this biography is pretty awful. I knew Natalie and more directly her brother and sister. I went to JCC with the Rob (RIP), Steve and Dennis and know that 10,000 Maniacs existed and played college and other gigs in the area before Natalie joined them. All you have to do is check out Facebook to know that the band is alive and well, sans Natalie. Will always be a huge Maniacs fan, in all its incarnations ! !
My dad used to work with Rob at Hopes in Jamestown, and a friends band used to play in the same clubs abd gigs as the maniacs in J-town. Love this Group, Just saw Natalie with the BPO in Buffalo and she still is amazing! :)

What about their Unplugged album? That was huge, and it was how I learned about them.
slatpet64
SERVOSS Family of Jamestown loves this band as well
i love this band forever

Natalie Merchant is one of my favs singers!
'Cuse me?? I am from Jamestown, know these guys and would appreciate the bio fixed and updated, give more credit where credit is due,,, Dennis Drew, Steve Gustafson, and Rob Buck.
RIP Rob......
I thought 10,000 Maniacs was unique because they supported Merchant's vocals in such a clean, minimalist way. Augustyniak in particular seemed to be able to be a master of this--I remember a few live songs where he just slapped his thigh.

When she went solo, she lost that. The guitar is mixed nearly as prominently as her voice. That, plus the more self-absorbe d lyrics, turned me off to Merchant.

I thought Mary Ramsey had a great voice--hopin g they can re-form around her for an album or two.
Met Rob Buck many years ago after a show in Philly. I was sad to hear he has since passed from cancer.
The bio is also wrong in that it says the new lineup has parted ways. That's incorrect. The group is still performing and still recording. I've heard some of the new tracks and they're absolutely great.

Awesome song. You can feel the frustration of the character. Hypnotic guitar. Timeless and enduring.
The bio info here is wrong and as a fan that bugs me. Natalie and John were both there at the beginning but the true founding members were Dennis Drew, Steve Gustafson, and Rob Buck.
I caught the Maniacs in Albany, NY yesterday, and they were fantastic! I love Mary Ramsey's voice .. and the band was spectacular, with a great mix of different sounds and instrumental delights. Go see them if you get the chance. I also heard of an upcoming album.
Well Damn some of her catchy sayings are in the lyrics. One of them is the title in my tribe. She always harping about how you gotta keep up with your tribe. Now i understand how far back that little nugget of wisdom goes back to.
S**t you not my mother Kathleen Alison named this band. They where all discussing the name of the band at my mothers place and after getting pretty miffed (which is happens often and hell seems like a vacation when does) yelled at them "You ten thousand maniacs!" I'm just glad that my mother's friends played good music or this would go for awesome to embarrassing story.

Thank you for reviving my love for Natalie; Unplugged all weekend!
Great music
I love this band, but I don't know how they think they are able to go on with the wonderful Natalie Merchant.
I still think the 10,000 Maniacs Unplugged session was the best of the series
sharyl_csonk a
Another great 80's group!
In My Tribe is top 100 album of all time.
I really like Noah's Dove.
Am I maniac if I wear written words of love on my face? Mmmmmm.....
What's the Weather here?
Damn it. I just stayed up all night listening to 10,000 Maniacs, who I haven't listened to in years. Now I'm going to be tired as s**t at work! I love 10,000 Maniacs.

Why the hell Pandora would put this on my country station is beyond me. Bad, bad pandora.
Whenever I hear 10,000 Maniacs music I feel like cleaning the house. My mom always played this when she would clean when I was little. Good memories.
Yes, that is an absolutely pathetic attempt at a "biography". Mr. Ruhlmann, my 8 year-old could do better than that...
That's a very brief (and slightly misleading) bio for the band. Natalie and John weren't the "co-founders " , they were the original lyricists (and John took vocals on a few songs) and John wrote most of the music, but other than their drummer (Jerome Augustyniak) t h
<3 Natalie Merchant
"Like The Weather" I like the way she sings this song, beautiful voice!
cutenfuzzy36
i love how she feels ever word of her song and gets emotional when she sings i love her music
once her song came on the radio in a store i was in and i like was dancing around in the scented candle aisle
emarieh74
Gotta love Natalie!
I was out with a gurl on my way to the movies the week Our Time In Eden hit the market and I passed a record store that had a poster of it. Me and the gurl were holding hands and I let go of her when I saw the thing. Suffice it to say, I went to the movies alone. I saw "Forever Young" with Mel Gibson.
i luv her 2. i'm kinda looking for sommething else right now though. sommething fresh, unique
trouble me, is my favorite, and the video makes it even sweeter.
Love Natatlie~~ Just had the chance to see her in Boston and she was just Amazing!
She is one of my favorite female song writer/vocal i s t . I Love her!!!
