Texas is a Scottish band formed in Glasgow, United Kingdom, in 1986. Renowned primarily for their contributions to the alternative rock and pop genres, they have carved a significant niche in the music industry.
The band gained widespread recognition with their 1989 debut album, "Southside," which included the hit single "I Don't Want a Lover." Throughout the 1990s and into the 2000s, Texas evolved their sound, incorporating more diverse pop and soul influences. Notable albums during this period include "White on Blonde" (1997) and "The Hush" (1999), both of which achieved considerable commercial success. "White on Blonde" in particular is often lauded for singles like "Say What You Want" and "Halo," and it solidified Texas's standing in the UK music charts.
The band, led by frontwoman Sharleen Spiteri, has received numerous accolades, including Brit Award nominations, and maintained a consistent presence with their engaging live performances.
