About this album

Nervous Night is the album that turned The Hooters from a Philadelphia cult act into a mainstream new wave force. Released in 1985, it blends jangling guitars, accordion, organ and sharply written hooks into a radio-ready pop-rock sound that feels both upbeat and distinctive. The record’s success was driven by breakout singles such as ‘And We Danced’, ‘All You Zombies’ and ‘Where Do the Children Go’, which helped the band cross over well beyond college and rock radio. Confident, melodic and immediately memorable, it remains the group’s defining statement and a fine example of mid-1980s American pop-rock with character.
