Bon Jovi

Bon Jovi is an American rock band formed in Sayreville, New Jersey, in 1983. The band consists of singer Jon Bon Jovi, keyboardist David Bryan, drummer Tico Torres, guitarists John Shanks and Phil X, percussionist Everett Bradley, and bassist Hugh McDonald. Original bassist Alec John Such left the band in 1994, and longtime guitarist and co‑songwriter Richie Sambora departed in 2013. In 1984, Bon Jovi released their self‑titled debut album, and its single “Runaway” reached the Top 40 of the Billboard Hot 100. In 1986, the band achieved widespread success and global recognition with their third album, Slippery When Wet, which produced three Top 10 singles on the Billboard Hot 100, including two No. 1 hits: “You Give Love a Bad Name” and “Livin’ on a Prayer.” Their fourth album, New Jersey (1988), was also commercially successful, featuring five Top 10 singles, including the chart‑toppers “Bad Medicine” and “I’ll Be There for You.” The band toured and recorded extensively during the late 1980s, culminating in the 1988–90 New Jersey Syndicate Tour. In 1992, the band returned with the double‑platinum Keep the Faith, which included the hit “Bed of Roses.” This was followed by their biggest‑selling and longest‑charting single, “Always,” in 1994. The album These Days (1995) showcased a more mature sound. After a second hiatus, their 2000 album Crush, particularly the lead single “It’s My Life,” successfully introduced the band to a younger audience.
