Third Eye Blind is an American alternative rock and pop rock band formed in 1993 in San Francisco, California. The group is best known for their Top 10 single "Semi-Charmed Life," which remains a defining track of the late-1990s alternative rock era. Their music blends melodic pop sensibilities with hard-edged rock instrumentation, contributing to their enduring presence in the mainstream alternative scene. The band continues to tour actively, with recent performances in Southern California including a show at Yaamava' Theater in Highland in August 2026. Known for high-energy live performances, Third Eye Blind engages audiences with dynamic stage presence, including moments where members perform backflips from atop speakers to fully occupy the stage rather than just stand on it. They are categorized under Rock and Indie & Alt genres and maintain a consistent presence at festivals and venue tours across the U.S..
