In early 2009, alternative rockers Phoenix returned with a new album – their fourth studio – titled Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix. The album won Best Alternative Music Album at the 2009 Grammy Awards on January 31, 2010. Shortly afterwards, “1901” hit number one on the Billboard Hot Alternative Songs chart. The album was the first Phoenix album to be certified gold and appeared on numerous “Best of” lists at the end of 2010, including Rolling Stone magazine. Their next album, Bankrupt!, debuted at number four on the American Billboard 200 albums chart. With their unique, alternative rock sound, Phoenix will be playing the world for years to come.
