Biography

Better Than Ezra, veterans of the late '80s college rock scene, rose to fame in the '90s by blending '80s jangle pop with grunge, scoring hits like "Good" and "Desperately Wanting." Despite transitioning to independent status in the 2000s, the New Orleans group continued to tour and release new albums, with 2024's Super Magick being their latest offering.

Formed in 1988 by college students from Louisiana State University, Better Than Ezra overcame tragedy and lineup changes to achieve success. After relocating to Los Angeles and releasing their independent debut Deluxe in 1993, the band signed with Elektra Records, achieving platinum status with "Good." The group continued to release albums and tour, eventually partnering with Artemis Records for releases like Before the Robots in 2005 and Plays Paper Empire in 2009, leading up to their most recent album, Super Magick, in 2024 on Round Hill Records.

Better Than Ezra Marketing Affinity & Brand Fit Data

Report Date: 2025-09-14

Better Than Ezra resonates with 35-44 & 25-34 audiences and sustains presence in UNITED STATES, CANADA, UNITED KINGDOM. The demographic is heavily female (60%), giving brands permission to be specific without narrowing the funnel. Performance concentrates on Instagram, averaging 268 avg likes per post; Instagram amplifies the conversation around drops and moments. Affinity adjacency with Live Nation, Southwest Airlines, Peloton maps cleanly into streetwear, music platforms, and lifestyle products. That alignment reduces creative risk and increases the odds of shareable outcomes.

Artist Affinity estimates how strongly an artist's audience overlaps with interest in specific brands, products, and categories. It is derived from aggregated social and behavioral signals—who fans follow, save, click, and engage with—normalized across platforms. Higher affinity suggests better partnership fit and higher likelihood that fans will respond positively to branded content or offers. Use it to shortlist natural brand partners and product concepts that feel authentic to the audience. Combine affinity with Connection Strength (ER) and reach to balance fit with impact. Treat affinity as directional—validate with creative tests and small pilots before scaling.

ER = (likes + comments + shares) ÷ audience per post ≥ 3.0% = Very Strong 2.0–2.99% = Strong 1.0–1.99% = Moderate < 1.0% = Low
How to read it: Pair ER with reach (views/followers) to gauge intensity and scale.
