(1996) |"Hesher" is an EP and the first release by Canadian rock band
Nickelback .All songs were written and performed by Nickelback. It was released in March/ April 1996. Supposedly, the name came from a friend of the band who would frequently say "Hey sure". After selling more than 10,000 copies, the band stopped production of the album, and it is now a sought-after collector's item.
"Hesher" was the first of only two albums to feature lead singer
Chad Kroeger 's cousinBrandon Kroeger as a drummer. He can also be seen in the music video for the single "Fly".Out of the four songs later re-released on "Curb", "Window Shopper" and "Fly" weren't re-recorded for the album, being the same recordings found on "Hesher".
