Dean Wareham

Now in the third stage of a career stretching back more than two decades, Dean Wareham has adapted to changing times without losing his musical identity. His name-making Galaxie 500 embodied the reverb-drenched melancholy of 1980s college rock, and Luna’s slicker, more fleshed-out sound dovetailed perfectly with the era of alternative rock. Since disbanding Luna in 2004, Wareham has played as a duo with his wife, Britta Phillips; they call themselves the Dean And Britta band.
