'''Spin Doctors''' are an American [[alternative rock]] band from New York City, best known for their early 1990s hits "[[Two Princes]]" and "[[Little Miss Can't Be Wrong]]", which peaked on the [[Billboard Hot 100|''Billboard'' Hot 100]] chart at No.&nbsp;7 and No.&nbsp;17, respectively.<ref>{{cite magazine |url=http://www.billboard.com/artist/280158/spin-doctors/chart |title=Spin Doctors |magazine=Billboard}}</ref>

The band currently consists of [[Chris Barron]] (lead vocals), Eric Schenkman (guitar and vocals), Aaron Comess (drums and keyboards) and Jack Daley (bass).

==History==
The group originated in the late 1980s in New York City, originally as a band called Trucking Company; this band included Canadian guitarist Eric Schenkman,<ref name=guitarhoo>{{cite web|title=Eric Schenkman Interview|url=http://www.guitarhoo.com/interviews/eric-schenkman-199|work=Guitarhoo!|publisher=Guitarhoo.com|access-date=February 21, 2014|date=December 18, 2013|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140224060335/http://www.guitarhoo.com/interviews/eric-schenkman-199|archive-date=February 24, 2014|url-status=dead}}</ref> harmonicist [[John Popper]], and later vocalist [[Chris Barron]], who was Popper's [[Princeton, New Jersey]] high school friend. Popper left this side project to focus on his main gig with [[Blues Traveler]] full-time. With a name change to Spin Doctors, as well as the addition of Aaron Comess on drums and [[Mark White (bassist)|Mark White]] on bass, the classic lineup was in place by the spring of 1989.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.rollingstone.com/news/story/5939180/miracle_cure/print |title=Miracle Cure |access-date=July 20, 2008 |author=Jeff Giles |date=January 7, 1993 |magazine=Rolling Stone |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081230070541/http://www.rollingstone.com/news/story/5939180/miracle_cure/print |archive-date=December 30, 2008 }}</ref>Barron’s brother Jeremy Gross served as guitar tech.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.goldmanfc.com/memorials/jeremy-gross/5468377/index.php | title=Jeremy Gross Obituary - Visitation & Funeral Information }}</ref>

Spin Doctors signed with [[Epic Records]]/[[Sony Music]] [[Artists and repertoire|A&R]] executive [[Frankie LaRocka]] in 1990.<ref name=NYT90sband>{{cite news|url= https://www.nytimes.com/2005/09/25/fashion/sundaystyles/25SPIN.html?pagewanted=print|title= 'That 90s Band' Tries Again|access-date= July 20, 2008|author= Warren St. John|date= September 25, 2005|newspaper= New York Times}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.spindoctors-archive.com/faq/band_members.html|title=Spindoctors archive}}</ref> The band's Epic debut EP ''[[Up for Grabs...Live]]'' was recorded live at the [[Wetlands Preserve]] in lower Manhattan, and released in January 1991. (In November 1992, these [[Extended play|EP]] tracks were remixed and supplemented by additional live recordings to form the album ''[[Homebelly Groove...Live]]''.)<ref name="Larkin">{{cite book|title=[[Encyclopedia of Popular Music|The Virgin Encyclopedia of Popular Music]]|editor=Colin Larkin|editor-link=Colin Larkin (writer)|publisher=[[Virgin Books]]|date=1997|edition=Concise|isbn=1-85227-745-9|page=1120}}</ref> Spin Doctors were known for their somewhat lengthy live shows, sometimes jamming even more than is evident on their live releases. They also often performed double-bill gigs opening for Blues Traveler, with members of both bands all jamming together as the transition from Spin Doctors set into the Blues Traveler set. Spin Doctors have many songs from their early club days that were never officially released, but remain circulated via concert recordings.

Spin Doctors's debut studio album, ''[[Pocket Full of Kryptonite]]'', was released in August 1991.<ref name="Larkin"/> The band continued to play extensive live shows, gaining grassroots fans, as the album was mostly ignored commercially. In the summer of 1992, the band toured with the first lineup of the [[H.O.R.D.E.]] festival, sharing the stage with fellow jam bands [[Widespread Panic]], [[Blues Traveler]], and [[Phish]]. That summer, [[sleeper hit|commercial popularity heated up]], as radio and [[MTV]] began playing "Little Miss Can't Be Wrong" and "Two Princes",<ref name="Larkin"/> with the videos directed by filmmaker Rich Murray (who would direct many of the band's videos). The album went Gold in September 1992, and then received another boost in sales after the band's appearance on ''[[Saturday Night Live]]'' in October 1992. Additional videos and singles followed for "What Time Is It", "How Could You Want Him (When You Know You Could Have Me?)", and "Jimmy Olsen's Blues". By June 1993, the album went Triple Platinum.<ref name=NYT90sband/> Ultimately it sold over five million copies in the U.S.<ref name=CNNFree>{{cite news|url= http://www.cnn.com/SHOWBIZ/Music/9906/23/spin.doctors/index.html|title= The Spin Doctors: Songs in the key of free|access-date= July 21, 2008|author= Donna Freydkin|date= June 23, 1999|publisher= CNN}}</ref> and another five million overseas, peaking at No.&nbsp;3 on the [[Billboard 200|''Billboard'' 200]] albums chart.

[[File:2017BassMarkWhite.jpg|thumb|left|[[Mark White (bassist)|Mark White]] in 2017]]
''[[Rolling Stone]]'', which put the band on its cover in January 1993, said the band's "popularity is based on universal rock & roll virtues ... The Doctors aren't trying to blaze new trails. They know we've been down this way with the [[The Rolling Stones|Stones]], [[Curtis Mayfield]], and a few of their other touchstones. But the proof—plenty of it—is in the party." Spin Doctors made an appearance on ''[[Sesame Street]]'' (episode 3450), singing a modified version of "Two Princes" that emphasized the importance of sharing starring [[Elmo]], [[Zoe (Sesame Street)|Zoe]], and [[Telly Monster|Telly]].<ref>{{cite web |url= https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0063951/soundtrack |title= Soundtracks for "Sesame Street" |work= [[Internet Movie Database|IMDB]] |access-date= September 26, 2006}}</ref> Another song on ''Sesame Street'' featured Muppet versions of their band starring [[Count von Count]] and Zoe singing "Little Miss Count Along" based on their hit "Little Miss Can't be Wrong" that focused on counting. In 1993, they recorded covers of "[[Have You Ever Seen the Rain?]]", originally by [[Creedence Clearwater Revival]], for the film ''[[Philadelphia (film)|Philadelphia]]''<ref>{{cite web |url= https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0107818/soundtrack |title= Soundtracks for "Philadelphia" |work= [[Internet Movie Database|IMDB]] |access-date= June 3, 2007}}</ref> and "[[Spanish Castle Magic]]" for ''[[Stone Free: A Tribute to Jimi Hendrix]]''.

Spin Doctors's second studio album, ''[[Turn It Upside Down]]'', released in June 1994,<ref>{{cite news|url= https://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9E0CE2DE123AF93AA35755C0A962958260&sec=&spon=&pagewanted=2|title= The Pop Life |access-date= July 20, 2008|author= Neil Strauss|date= June 9, 1994|newspaper=[[The New York Times]]}}</ref> was less commercially successful than ''Pocket Full of Kryptonite'',<ref name="Larkin"/> but sold a million copies in the U.S.<ref name=CNNFree/> and another million internationally. The second single, "You Let Your Heart Go Too Fast", was a modest hit (No. 42 on the pop chart). The band set out on a three-month headlining tour, and played to large crowds at [[Woodstock '94]] and the [[Glastonbury Festival]]. Shortly after the release of ''Turn It Upside Down'', original guitarist Eric Schenkman left the band in September 1994 by walking offstage during a concert in [[Berkeley, California]],<ref name=NYT90sband/> citing musical and personal differences, and being weary of the road. Schenkman was replaced by Anthony Krizan.

Featuring new guitarist Krizan, Spin Doctors released ''[[You've Got to Believe in Something]]'' in May 1996.<ref name="Larkin"/> It produced the single and video "She Used to Be Mine". They performed on the ''[[Late Show with David Letterman]]'' and did some touring, with [[Ivan Neville]] joining the band on keyboards. During this period, Spin Doctors contributed the theme song to Seasons 2 and 3 of the television show ''[[Spin City]].'' After touring wrapped up in the fall of 1996, Krizan eventually left the band, for reasons that remain relatively unknown. He was replaced by Israeli musician Eran Tabib after auditioning nearly 200 candidates.<ref name=RSThreaten>{{cite web|url=https://www.rollingstone.com/artists/spindoctors/articles/story/5921678/spin_doctors_threaten_a_sequel |title=Spin Doctors Threaten A Sequel |access-date=July 20, 2008 |author=Anni Layne |date=July 10, 1998 |magazine=Rolling Stone |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081230070757/http://www.rollingstone.com/artists/spindoctors/articles/story/5921678/spin_doctors_threaten_a_sequel |archive-date=December 30, 2008 }}</ref> ''You've Got to Believe in Something'' did not live up to previous album sales, selling only 75,000 copies.<ref name=RSThreaten/> Epic dropped the band in 1996.<ref name=CNNFree/>

[[File:SpinDrs2.jpg|thumb|upright|Barron singing with Schenkman playing guitar]]
In 1998, Spin Doctors signed to [[Uptown Records|Uptown]]/[[Universal Records|Universal]] and released ''[[Here Comes the Bride (album)|Here Comes the Bride]]'' in June 1999. During the recording of the album, Mark White left the band. The bass tracks on the album were finished by original band member Aaron Comess. During the tour supporting the album, Barron lost his voice due to a rare acute form of [[vocal cord]] paralysis that severely affected his ability to talk and sing. He was told he had a 50/50 chance of ever talking or singing normally again.<ref name=NYT90sband/> Keyboardist Ivan Neville also took over vocal duties for a few dates, but the band eventually cancelled the remainder of its tour.<ref>{{cite web|url= http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1434540/19990818/spin_doctors.jhtml|archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20030514204354/http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1434540/19990818/spin_doctors.jhtml|url-status= dead|archive-date= May 14, 2003|title= Spin Doctors' Chris Barron Silenced By Paralyzed Vocal Cord|access-date= July 20, 2008|date= August 19, 1999|publisher= [[MTV News]]}}</ref> Barron's voice came back in early 2000 (first comeback [solo] shows in March 2000), at which point he began performing with his band and the Give Daddy Five. Barron undertook what he calls "a journeyman songwriting experience", composing tunes with Blues Traveler's John Popper and with former [[Broadcast Music Incorporated|BMI]] executive Jeff Cohen.
Spin Doctors remained inactive as a band until September 2001, when news about the closing of [[Wetlands Preserve|Wetlands]] sparked the original four members to reunite. On September 7, 2001, the original lineup took the stage for the first time since 1994 to play at Wetlands. It was the final closing week of the club. The landmark show was a great success for the fans and the band.<ref name=NYT90sband/>

Odd shows followed in 2002 through 2005, which eventually led to a brand new studio album, ''[[Nice Talking to Me]]'', released on September 13, 2005.<ref name=NYT90sband/> The single "Can't Kick the Habit" was included on the soundtrack to the movie ''[[Grandma's Boy (2006 film)|Grandma's Boy]]''. It received moderate radio airplay, along with the songs "Margarita" and the title track "Nice Talking to Me". While the record received good reviews, follow-up proved difficult when the record company that released it went out of business.<ref>{{cite web|url= http://www.knoxnews.com/news/2007/nov/30/spin-doctors-frontman-says/|title= Spin Doctor's frontman says nearly losing voice good for him|access-date= July 20, 2008|author= Wayne Bledsoe|date= November 30, 2007|newspaper= [[Knoxville News Sentinel]]}}</ref>

In 2008, the band continued to play one-off live shows in the United States and Europe. Drummer Aaron Comess released an instrumental record of all his own compositions entitled ''Catskills Cry'' featuring bassist [[Tony Levin]] and guitarist Bill Dillon. In 2009, Barron released the solo record ''Pancho and the Kid'' on [[Valley Entertainment]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.valley-entertainment.com/pancho-and-the-kid.html |title=Valley Entertainment Pancho And The Kid |publisher=Valley-entertainment.com |access-date=November 7, 2013}}</ref> During the summer of 2010, Barron released ''Songs from the Summer of Sangria''. This five-song EP was his first official release with his band The Time Bandits.

In 2011, the band celebrated the 20-year anniversary of ''Pocket Full of Kryptonite'' with a UK and US tour. Sony Legacy released a 20th anniversary edition with bonus material on August 29, 2011.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.legacyrecordings.com/a/#/artist/spin-doctors/1317|title=Legacy|author=Legacy Recordings|work=Sony Legacy|date=August 18, 2016}}</ref>

In April 2013, the band released ''[[If the River Was Whiskey]]'', their sixth studio album.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/if-the-river-was-whiskey/id621834201 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130909115246/https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/if-the-river-was-whiskey/id621834201 |url-status=dead |archive-date=September 9, 2013 |title=iTunes – Music – If the River Was Whiskey by Spin Doctors |publisher=[[iTunes]] |access-date=April 29, 2013}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.amazon.com/If-The-River-Was-Whiskey/dp/B00BJB2AKM/ |title=If The River Was Whiskey: Spin Doctors: Music |website=Amazon |date=January 1, 1970 |access-date=April 29, 2013}}</ref>

In January 2022, the band fired longtime bassist Mark White after 33 years over his refusal to receive the [[COVID-19]] vaccine.<ref>{{cite web |title=Mark White Comments on Split with Spin Doctors |url=https://jambands.com/news/2022/02/02/mark-white-comments-on-split-with-spin-doctors/ |website=Jambands |access-date=9 March 2022 |date=2 February 2022}}</ref>

In August 2024, the band announced on their Facebook page that touring bassist Jack Daley has joined the band as a full-time member.

On January 16th, 2025, the band released their first single in over a decade: "Still a Gorilla", and announced their next album, ''Face Full of Cake''.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://themusicuniverse.com/spin-doctors-announce-first-new-studio-album-in-12-years/ | title=Spin Doctors announce first new studio album in 12 years | date=January 17, 2025 }}</ref>
