Sixpence None the Richer
BIOGRAPHY
Sixpence None the Richer is a rock band known for its distinctive blend of indie-rock and introspective songwriting. Their live performances are filled with guitar riffs, driving bass, and pounding drums. As they embark on touring in 2024 and 2025, their first since 2013, lead singer Leigh Nash shares her excitement, saying, “I want to come out swinging.”
With a discography spanning nine global album releases, including three albums released in 2024 and 2025 (Rosemary Hill, The Dawn Of Grace and Live At Gruene Hall), Sixpence’s sound remains anchored in Nash’s unmistakable vocals and Matt Slocum’s intricate guitar work. The band is perhaps best known for their hit singles, including “Kiss Me” - which reached No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 and became a top ten hit in sixteen countries. Additional global hits include “There She Goes”, “Breathe Your Name”, and “Don’t Dream It’s Over”.
“Kiss Me” continues to grow in popularity, recently surpassing 1 Billion streams on Spotify - 33% of those occurring in just the past year. The song frequently appears in Shazam’s weekly U.S. Top 200, goes viral on TikTok, and remains a staple in film, television, and advertising worldwide. In July 2024, “Kiss Me” was certified triple platinum by the RIAA, marking a remarkable resurgence; it went double platinum in 2023, following its initial platinum certification in 1999.
Sixpence None the Richer has earned two Grammy Award nominations, multiple Dove Awards, and accolades such as “Top Soundtrack Single” at the Billboard Music Awards and “Best Song” at the Young Hollywood Awards. Their rendition of “There She Goes” by The La’s was also recognized as a BMI Pop Awards “Top Song” in 2001.
Formed in 1992 by Slocum and Nash in New Braunfels, Texas, Sixpence None the Richer reunited in 2024 with original members and embarked on their first tour in nearly 20 years, performing in 50 cities across the U.S. and selling out iconic venues in Chicago, Nashville, New York, Washington, D.C., Santa Ana, West Hollywood, New Braunfels, Raleigh, and many more.
That same year, they released Rosemary Hill, their first new music since 2012. Paste Magazine praised the EP, writing, “Sixpence… are back and as catchy as ever. Rosemary Hill takes the band’s rock roots and pairs them with a bit of twangy, alt-tinged distortion.”
For over three decades, Sixpence None the Richer has shaped the musical landscape across generations. With new music and a renewed creative drive, they continue to bring their songs—both old and new—to audiences worldwide.
