Blues Traveler is renowned for their rollicking fusion of blues, rock, and soul, characterized by extended jams and sharp melodic hooks. Fronted by the distinctive harmonica and vocals of John Popper, they emerged as pioneers of the 90s jam band scene, notably founding the H.O.R.D.E. Festival. Their hit "Run-Around" brought them mainstream success, and they continue to be a compelling live act with a loyal following.
