Hooverphonic’s beginnings were in Belgium, when Frank Duchene, Alex Callier and Raymond Geerts joined forces. The band later signed a contract with Sony Music, and shortly after, released their album “A New Stereophonic Sound Spectacular”. They gained copious success, especially due to the release of the song “2Wicky” which made it to the soundtrack of Stealing Beauty in 1996. It later graced the original soundtracks of I Know What You Did Last Summer and Heights. The band had a successful 1998, embarking on a tour with Massive Attack and Morcheeba. They released “Blue Wonder Power Milk” on August 11th 1998. It led the band on an organic departure from their trip hop roots, focusing more on a pop song structured idea complete with light strings and memorable vocal hooks. Again, the band did very well with having their music featured on film with the song “Eden” being used in the 1998 horror flick I Still Know What You Did Last Summer. The band’s third triumphant effort entitled “The Magnificent Tree” was released on September 26th 2000; the single from the album “Mad About You” became a chart topping song in Europe.
“Hooverphonic Presents Jackie Cane”, released on October 28th 2002 became the band’s first number one record in Belgium. It features the singles “Sometimes” and “The World is Mind”. Both tracks made it into the top 50. The band maintained a reputation for topping the charts in Belgium with the following five releases being in the top 4 of the Belgium Album charts. They released an interesting live album called “Sit Down and Listen to Hooverphonic” on December 16th 2003, which was accompanied by an orchestra, but interestingly to no audience.
