Jimmy Eat World

Jimmy Eat World is an American rock band formed in Arizona in 1993, known for emotional, melodic alternative rock.

Their 2001 album *Bleed American* and single "The Middle" brought mainstream success.

The name reportedly comes from a crayon drawing one band member's younger brother made after a fight.

I've been listening to a lot of Jimmy Eat World lately.
