New Radicals to Reunite for First Time in 22 Years for Inauguration Parade

They may have been a one hit wonder, but 90s modern rock band New Radicals are reuniting for the first time in 22 years to perform their biggest hit this Wednesday at the Inauguration of President-elect Joe Biden.

Rolling Stone reports:

The 1998 hit single resurfaced on the 2020 campaign trail as the handpicked walk-on song for Vice President-elect’s husband Doug Emhoff – the soon-to-be Second Gentleman – during rallies.

“If there’s one thing on Earth that would possibly make us get the band together, if only for a day, it is the hope that our song could be even the tiniest beacon of light in such a dark time,” frontman Gregg Alexander said in a statement.

“America knows in its heart that things will get bright again with a new administration and a real plan for vaccines on the way. That’s the message of the song… this world is gonna pull through.”

The hit also has a deep connection with the Biden family: In Joe Biden’s 2017 autobiography, Promise Me, Dad, he wrote that “You Get What You Give” became the family’s rallying “theme song” for son Beau Biden during his battle with cancer.

Alexander currently lives in Philadelphia.
