You got the last one via the shotgun approach, you goobers. 😛

Anyway: Michael Stipe's sister was in a short-lived band with an individual who went on to a sucessful solo career. He recently appeared on a late-night talk show with his newest outfit. Who is he?

Bonus question: what was the name of her band?

Ew. No. Mayer wasn't around until the 90s. He got started playing coffeehouses around Atlanta to starry-eyed teenage girls.

His current core audience, of course.

Nah, it's more an Athens thing. EVERYONE is in a band in Athens. This was especially true back in the 80's when REM, the B-52's, Drivin' N Cryin', etc were all over the radio.
