Gin Blossoms is an American rock/pop band formed in 1987, in Tempe, Arizona. They took their name from a photo of W.C. Fields which bore the caption "W.C. Fields with gin blossoms", referring to what appeared to be the actor's gin-ravaged nose, but was actually a skin condition known as rosacea. The band released three albums and had several hits in the mid 1990s, before breaking up in 1997. Five years later in 2002, the band reunited, released a DVD, resumed touring, and promised a fourth album. "Major Lodge Victory", the Gin Blossoms' first album in ten years, was released on August 8, 2006 on the Hybrid Recordings label. Their fifth album, "No Chocolate Cake", was released on September 28, 2010 through 429 Records.
