Riverdales is tagged as: Riverdales are an American punk rock band from Chicago, Illinois made up of former Screeching Weasel members. Bassist Dan Vapid (born Dan Schafer) and guitarist Ben Weasel (née Ben Foster) both served as front men, splitting time singing lead vocals for the group. The Riverdales’ original run lasted from 1994-1997. They reformed in 2003 to record their third album, and they once again reformed in 2008 and released a new record in July of 2009, followed by another exactly a year later. Named after the small town of Riverdale from the Archie Comics, The Riverdales formed in 1994. The founding members, Foster (guitar), Dan Schafer (bass), and Dan Sullivan (drums), were all former members of Screeching Weasel, who had broken up earlier that year. Unlike Screeching Weasel, the members of The Riverdales would be credited under their real names. They released their self-titled debut album on July 7, 1995, on Lookout! Records. It was produced by Green Day’s Billie Joe Armstrong and Squirtgun’s Mass Giorgini. They toured extensively that year as the opening act for the Mr. T Experience, and then for Green Day. Playing off this synergy, the Riverdales supported Green Day’s 1995 tour. Also that year, the bands song “Back To You” appeared in the movie... Read More About Riverdales Biography...
