About Guster:
Guster is an East Coast alt-rock band that started in the mid-’90s with a mix of acoustic folk and pop. Over time, they developed a bigger sound combining Brit-pop and American rock. Known for catchy hooks, powerful choruses, and unique hand-drumming, they gained popularity in 1999 with their album Lost and Gone Forever, featuring the hit “Fa Fa.” Later albums like Ganging Up on the Sun (featuring smash hit song “Satellite”) and Easy Wonderful (featuring hit “Do You Love Me”), received wide critical and popular acclaim.
