Pixies are an alternative rock band from Boston, Massachusetts, formed in 1985 by Black Francis, Joey Santiago, Kim Deal, and David Lovering. Their music, starting with releases like *Come On Pilgrim* (1987) and *Surfer Rosa* (1988), helped define the alternative rock genre with a mix of punk, indie rock, and noise pop, producing classics like “Where Is My Mind?” and “Gigantic.” Originally signed to 4AD, their album *Doolittle* reached gold certification and became one of their most recognized works. The band broke up in 1993 but returned in 2004 and has continued to release new records and tour with various lineups. Fans of bands like Sonic Youth, The Breeders, and Nirvana will find Pixies’ dynamic sound and influence hard to miss in the landscape of modern rock.
