''Blind Melon'' is the eponymous debut album by the rock band Blind Melon, released on September 22, 1992 through Capitol Records. "No Rain" became Blind Melon's breakthrough single. == Background == In 1990, lead singer Shannon Hoon moved from Indiana to Los Angeles, California. Soon afterwards he met guitarist Rogers Stevens and bassist Brad Smith, both Mississippi natives who had come to Los Angeles a year earlier. They began playing together and soon recruited a second guitarist, Christopher Thorn. The foursome then looked for a drummer in the local area, but months passed and their search was unsuccessful. Stevens and Smith eventually persuaded drummer Glen Graham from Mississippi to come to Los Angeles and join the band. After Blind Melon recorded a four song demo called ''The Goodfoot Workshop'', Capitol Records became interested and signed them in 1991 although they never released the band's demo as an EP.〔Chapman (2008), p. 109〕 Blind Melon then collaborated with producer David Briggs to put together their first EP titled ''The Sippin' Time Sessions''. However, the record was not released due to "slick and doctored" results that were unanticipated. In late 1991, Blind Melon decided to leave Los Angeles to record its debut album since they felt the city did not reflect their music style. A Capitol Records music manager had suggested they retreat to North Carolina. Chapel Hill, North Carolina was attractive to the band because of its "good music scene", however they could not find an affordable house big enough there for them and their equipment.〔 The band eventually rented a house in Durham, North Carolina.
