''Supergrass'' is a {{Britpop}} from Oxford, formed in 1993 by Gaz Coombes Gaz Coombes (lead vocals, guitar), Mick Quinn (bass) and Danny Goffey (drums), with Gaz’s older brother, Rob, originally an additional member, later joining officially on keyboards in 2002.
After the dissolution of their previous band, The Jennifers, Gaz and Danny joined with Mick to form Supergrass. They released the punk-ish "Caught by the Fuzz" in 1994 on the indie label Backbeat, which was later re-released by Creator/{{Parlophone|Records}} which generated hype from the UK press. They released the singles "Mansize Rooster" and "Lenny" afterwards, right before the release of their debut album ''I Should Coco'' in 1995. The album later received great commercial and critical success, reaching #1 in the UK Album Charts, helped by the success of their double A-side single "Alright"/"Time".
The band was able to keep the momentum with the releases of ''In It for the Money'' in 1997 and ''[[SelfTitledAlbum Supergrass]]'' in 1999, both commercially successful. By the TurnOfTheMillennium, they released three more albums, ''Life on Other Planets'' in 2002, ''Road to Rouen'' in 2005 and ''Diamond Hoo Ha'' in 2008, as well a GreatestHitsAlbum in the middle of them, named ''Supergrass is 10'' in 2004 to celebrate the ten years of the band.
