About The Format

The Format is an indie pop/rock duo from Peoria, Arizona, formed in 2002 by Nate Ruess and Sam Means. Known for catchy, emotionally rich songs like “The First Single (You Know Me),” “She Doesn’t Get It,” and the acclaimed album Dog Problems (2006), they combined 60s-70s pop influences with alternative rock stylings. After a long hiatus, they reunited in 2025, releasing the single “Holy Roller” ahead of their third studio album Boycott Heaven, due January 23, 2026. They're celebrated for their heartfelt lyrics and melodic inventiveness and have inspired bands across indie and pop spectrums.
