Passenger most notably represented Ben Folds Five for Caroline, releasing the band's 1995 self-titled debut album.

In a 1997 interview, after his band had signed with Sony's Epic/550 label and released their second album Whatever and Ever Amen, Ben Folds spoke about both Passenger and The Low Road: A curious angle to some of Ben Folds' success actually might have to do with our own ex-local band The Low Road.
[Caroline Records'] Chaz Molins' idea was, 'I'd like to sign a band like The Low Road and make it for like an older Triple A [Adult Album Alternative] crowd... and they signed us...Really quickly, we picked up with younger people and modern-rock stations — the sort of thing Caroline was used to marketing.
That could have screwed up The Low Road to a certain extent because Passenger just kind of abandoned all their ideas about being Triple A.
