🎸 **Tesla Rocked the Grunge Look—Before Grunge Existed!**🎸

Dive into the authentic journey of Tesla, the hard rock band from Sacramento that defied the glam metal norms of the 1980s. Formed in 1984 as City Kidd, they rebranded to Tesla, honoring inventor Nikola Tesla, and released their platinum debut album *Mechanical Resonance* in 1986, featuring hits like "Modern Day Cowboy" and "Little Suzi".

Unlike their contemporaries, Tesla embraced a bluesy, soulful sound rooted in 1970s rock and roll, drawing inspiration from bands like The Allman Brothers and Aerosmith . Their down-to-earth image—favoring jeans over spandex—set them apart in the hair metal scene. Their 1989 double-platinum album *The Great Radio Controversy* included the Top 10 hit "Love Song".

In 1990, Tesla's *Five Man Acoustical Jam* showcased their versatility, featuring acoustic renditions of their hits and covers like "Signs," which became their highest-charting single . Their commitment to authentic rock continued with albums like *Psychotic Supper* and *Bust a Nut*, solidifying their legacy.
