Fuel is an American rock band from Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, formed in 1993 by guitarist-songwriter Carl Bell, vocalist Brett Scallions, drummer Jody Abbott, keyboardist Erik Avakian, and bassist Jeff Abercrombie. After several independent releases, the band signed with 550 Music and Epic Records to release their debut studio album, Sunburn (1998), which was supported by their first hit single, "Shimmer". The song peaked at number 42 on the Billboard Hot 100, while their 2000 single, "Hemorrhage ", peaked at number 30. The latter, along with the moderate hit "Bad Day", appeared on the band's second album, Something Like Human. Fuel's third album, Natural Selection (2003), was met with moderate success and is their last to feature Bell and Scallions together.
