Smash Mouth headlines Cerritos Center show

CERRITOS – Multi-platinum pop rock band Smash Mouth is performing at the Cerritos Center for the Performing Arts on Friday, Oct. 6, with the Spin Doctors as openers.

Smash Mouth rose to prominence in the 1990s with the hits “All Star,” “Then The Morning Comes” and “I’m a Believer,” which was later featured in the film “Shrek.”

Smash Mouth's first album, “Fush Yu Mang,’ came out in June 1997, followed by 1999’s “Astro Lounge,” their most critically and commercially successful album to date. It reached #6 on the Billboard charts.

Alternative rock band the Spin Doctors have sold more than 12 million records. Their explosive 1992 album “Pocket Full of Kryptonite” pushed the band into the mainstream.

The album contained the single “Two Princes,” which reached No. 4 on the Top 100 singles chart and was nominated for a Grammy Award in the Best Rock Vocal Performance by a Duio or Group category. The song also has the distinction of being the most played rock song on the radio in 1993.
