Sponge is an American alternative rock band formed in Detroit, Michigan in 1992

by vocalist Vinnie Dombroski, guitarists Mike Cross and Joey Mazzola,

bassist Tim Cross, and drummer Jimmy Paluzzi.

After shopping demos as the newly formed quintet, the song “Neenah Menasha”

caught the ears of A&R person Pablo Mathiason and the band signed with The Work Group

(a Columbia Records subsidiary) in the fall of 1993.  The following year,

Sponge released the now iconic, Platinum-selling debut album, “Rotting Piñata,”

to global, critical and commercial success.

After two top 10 hit singles, several tours and live television performances, including

the John Stewart Show and Late Night with David Letterman, Sponge followed up their

debut with 1996's "Wax Ecstatic.” This sophomore effort garnered a "Song Of The Year" nod

from Rolling Stone Magazine for title track “Wax Ecstatic.” The album also yielded two

additional top 10 hit singles and featured a guest vocal appearance from Richard Butler

of the Psychedelic Furs on the song “I Am Anastasia.”

Since then, Sponge continues to release new music and keeps a near-constant tour

schedule to the pleasure of their legion of loyal followers.
