Native Son, the Judybats' first album, came out on Sire in 1991, and it's a bright, jangling introduction to a band from Knoxville, Tennessee, with college-radio dreams and a knack for a wistful hook. The title track is the one that caught on, a chiming pop song that climbed to number 9 on Billboard's modern rock chart, with "Daylight" cut from the same shimmering cloth. David Jenkins handled the drums, and the band took the record on the road with John Wesley Harding. Next came Down in the Shacks Where the Satellite Dishes Grow.
