Biography

Seattle, United States (1992 – 2009)

Harvey Danger was a rock band that formed in Seattle, Washington in 1992, and rose to prominence in 1998 with the single “Flagpole Sitta”, from their debut album “Where Have All The Merrymakers Gone?”. The band released a new album in 2005, Little by Little…, after the five year hiatus that followed the release of their sophomore album “King James Version”. Harvey Danger has a devoted cult following but is widely considered to be a one-hit wonder, mainly due to limited mainstream radio airplay and a lack of decent record deals.

The band is little known in Europe, for the same reasons but also because the band focuses on selling themselves in America (especially Seattle), thus making it very difficult for fans to get albums in Europe. The original drummer Evan Sult moved to Chicago and now drums in the band Bound Stems. He has been replaced by Michael Welke, formerly of the band No. 226.
The single ‘’Flagpole Sitta’’ is also the theme song to the popular British comedy show ‘Peep Show’.
They are offering their new album “Little by Little” free of charge on their website. http://harveydanger.com/downloads/

As of May 28, 2009, they announced on their website they’ve called it quits. According to them their decision was mutual and they feel the band has run its course.

    I could never choose a favorite album by these guys, they all are brilliant in their own way. I really miss these guys.

    The only decent thing this band did was that song where they dissed Rage Against the Machine.

    Little by Little is best in my opinion. So many stellar tracks.

    As much as I love the band and all of their material and want them to be well known, I feel like everyone who doesn't wish to dig deeper than 'Flagpole Sitta' doesn't deserve to know about their greatness. Yes that is a snob remark, I don't care.

    This band is so much better than Flagpole Sitta suggests. Got their back catalogue recently after hearing Little By Little, and they're amazing.

    We get it, Flagpole Sitta is the theme for Peep Show. Now go listen to Little By Little by them and get at me.
