Superchunk is an American indie rock band from Chapel Hill, North Carolina. Formed in 1989, they were one of the bands that helped define the Chapel Hill music scene of the 1990s and were at the forefront of the indie rock scene at the time. The band's lineup consists of singer-guitarist Mac McCaughan, guitarist Jim Wilbur, bassist Laura Ballance, and drummer Laura King. They are known for their energetic, high-velocity style and strong DIY ethic. Members McCaughan and Ballance founded the successful independent record label Merge Records in 1989 as a way to release music from Superchunk and music created by friends, which has since expanded to include artists from around the world and records reaching the top of the Billboard music charts. Superchunk released a string of full-length albums and compilations throughout the 1990s. However, after releasing their eighth studio album, Here's to Shutting Up, in 2001, the band went into a period of reduced activity. In 2010, the band released their first studio album in nine years, Majesty Shredding, and followed it up in 2013 with their tenth album, I Hate Music. Their eleventh studio album, What a Time to Be Alive, was released on February 16, 2018. Their twelfth full-length album, Wild Loneliness, was released in February 2022. In 2025, Superchunk released their thirteenth studio album, Songs in the Key of Yikes.
