History

Their lead vocalist, Jennifer Turner, was playing the Tigerlily tour with Natalie Merchant as a guitarist, when they formed Furslide together with Jason Lader and Adam MacDougall in early 1997. Furslide was the first band on Nellee Hooper's new label Meanwhile... when they were signed in 1998. They released their debut album titled Adventure in fall 1998 and played a couple of show subsequently in the US, the UK and all across Europe (for example opening for Lenny Kravitz on October 8th, 1998 in Detroit, they also where support act for Kula Shaker, Alanis Morissette and Ben Folds).
