    Showoff is a pop punk band from Chicago, Illinois led by vocalist Chris Envy.

    History

    [edit]

    Showoff was formed in 1997 in Villa Park, Illinois. The band consisted of Chris Envy, Daniel Castady (drums), Graham Jordan (guitar), and Dave Envy (a.k.a. Dave Hyde) (bass). In 1998, Showoff signed with Maverick Records while it was owned by Madonna. Their self-titled debut album was released the following year in 1999, and was produced by Goldfinger's John Feldmann. The single "Falling Star" reached No. 36 on the Billboard Modern Rock chart that same year.[1] Their song "Spill" was included on the soundtrack for the film Digimon: The Movie, which was released in 2000. They held a one-off reunion show in March 2005 for a cancer benefit. In 2006, Chris Envy reformed the band with Mickey Molinari and released the EP, Waiting for You. In 2017, Showoff released a new album Midwest Side Story and played a few shows. In 2023, Chris Envy reformed the band with previous drummer Mickey Molinari, guitarist Stephen Avery, and bassist Mike Muse. After a shift in personnel the following year, the band settled into a lineup of Envy, Molinari, guitarists Avery and Alex Crook, and bassist Matthew Nielsen. On April 12, 2024 it was officially announced that Showoff had signed to a new label home in Manic Kat Records. There are plans for extensive touring, several singles, and an EP release in the future.[2]
