All American Rejects

The All-American Rejects are a four-piece rock band from Oklahoma that was formed in 1999. The current members include Tyson Ritter (lead vocals and bass), Nick Wheeler (guitar), Mike Kennerty (rhythm guitar) and Chris Gaylor (drums).

In 2000, while Ritter and Wheeler were still in high school, they made a demo, featuring a different singer as lead vocalist, which has come to be known as “The Blue Album“. They then put together the “Same Girl, New Songs” EP, which got them signed to Doghouse Records courtesy of a fast-thinking intern.
