Pixies are an American rock band that formed in Boston, Massachusetts in 1986.
The band disbanded in 1993, but reunited in 2004.
Black Francis, Joey Santiago, Kim Deal, and David Lovering have been the band members since the start.
The Pixies' style of alternative rock music is heavily influenced by punk and surf rock, and while highly melodic.
