Nineties pop legends Sixpence None The Richer unrecognisable 25 years after huge hit

NINETIES pop legends Sixpence None The Richer look almost unrecognisable 25 years after their huge hit.

The Christian alternative rock band were huge in the Nineties and early Noughties but you might not recognise its members now.

Sixpence None The Richer are best known for the 1998 track Kiss Me, and various covers of iconic tracks

The group’s lead singer Leigh Nash, now 46, is still a prolific singer and she takes to the stage regularly.

She revealed to her tens of thousands of fans on Instagram that she’s set to go on tour in late July and early August.

Leigh will perform in cities across the US such as Columbus, Ohio and Grand Rapids in Michigan.

But she looks completely different from her days in the group as her eccentric spiky blond bob has been replaced with a more mature ginger style.

However, although the look might be more toned down, her signature bangs still remain.

Away from music, she launched her own new documentary video project on YouTube.

She announced the news via her Instagram: “Becoming! My YouTube series has launched 🥰 I’ve always enjoyed podcasts, so I’m honored to get this chance to bring you deeper into my world and just be.. Leigh! ❤️.”

Leigh and her friend Matt Slocum originally formed the group in Texas before they settled in Nashiville, Tennessee.

In 1994 when she was just 17-years-old, the pair released their debut studio album The Fatherless and the Widow, to critical success and the duo looked for new members.

They were joined by the likes of Tess Wiley, Dale Baker, and J.J. Plascencio where they went onto record the Dove award-winning record, This Beautiful Mess in 1995.

After Wiley opted to quit the group they went onto achieve their biggest hits which included the 1998 track Kiss Me, and successful covers of the tracks Don’t Dream It’s Over and There She Goes.

The name of the group also derives from the book Mere Christianity by C. S. Lewis, the same author that wrote the Chronicles of Narnia.

As a group they also received two nominations at the Grammy Awards for Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals for “Kiss Me” and in 1997 for the Best Rock Gospel Album for Sixpence None the Richer.
