Between 1991 and 2003, the band recorded six studio albums, in addition to charting 14 singles on the Billboard country charts. Their highest-peaking American single was 1996's "All You Ever Do Is Bring Me Down", a collaboration with accordionist Flaco Jiménez. They are best known in the UK for their 1998 single "Dance the Night Away," which was at the top of the charts for ten weeks in the UK. In 1996, The Mavericks won a Grammy Award for the song "Here Comes the Rain." The band split up in 2004, and lead singer Raul Malo released six solo albums. Bass player Robert Reynolds and keyboardist Jerry Dale McFadden co-founded the 'supergroup' SWAG, along with Ken Coomer of Wilco,Tom Petersson of Cheap Trick, and Doug Powell. In 2012, the band announced plans for several reunion festival dates.
