Uploaded with ImageShack.us

Vertical Horizon is an American alternative rock band formed at Georgetown University in Washington, D.C. in 1991. The band is best known for a string of hits in 1999 and early 2000s, including "You're a God", "Everything You Want", and "Best I Ever Had (Grey Sky Morning)". Their most recent album, Burning the Days, was released in late 2009."Save Me From Myself” was the first single.

Vertical Horizon was formed in 1991 by Georgetown University undergrads Matthew Scannell and Keith Kane.

In 1992, after graduation from Georgetown, the duo relocated to Boston and self-released their debut album There and Back Again, which was recorded in Matt's old high school, Deerfield Academy, over a period of a few weeks. Scannell and Kane split songwriting and lead vocal duties.

Vertical Horizon's indie albums began to attract record executives from several record labels during the late 1990s. The band signed with RCA Records in 1998.
