Skid Row is a rock band from New Jersey, USA. The band was formed in 1986 by bassist Rachel Bolan and guitarist Dave Sabo. Sabo and Bolan went to the same high school and met at a guitar store where Sabo worked. These two would play in Bolan’s garage and they soon recruited more band members via newspapers ads and performed in local clubs.

The band then released its debut album titled Skid Row in 1989 and the album was an immediate success and went 5x platinum. Skid Row’s second album went 2x platinum

Skid Row released a third album in 1994 after a one year hiatus. The album charted on the top 40. The rest of Skid Row’s releases were not as successful as the first few.
