Save Ferris is an American ska punk band formed circa 1995 in Orange County, California, United States.

[3] The band released their debut EP Introducing Save Ferris on their own label, Starpool Records in 1996, and ended up selling close to 20,000 copies of their EP “out of the trunks of their cars.” That year, Monique Powell provided vocals on the Reel Big Fish song "She Has A Girlfriend Now" from their album Turn the Radio Off (Mojo), which is considered one of RBF's most requested songs to date.

The album features several re-recorded tracks from their EP, several new songs, as well as a cover of Dexys Midnight Runners' "Come On Eileen",[5] the 1982 hit which became Save Ferris' most iconic single to-date.

In April 1998, the band made their television debut on HBO's music series Reverb before making an on-screen appearance in the teen film 10 Things I Hate About You (1999).

With two singles charting in the Billboard Hot 100, and full rotation on alternative radio globally, It Means Everything was able to achieve platinum certification as per the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).

[7] After the departure of the band's first drummer, Marc Harismendy,[8] in 1998, Save Ferris regrouped and released their appropriately titled sophomore album for Epic records, Modified, in October 1999.

Save Ferris performed at the 2002 Winter Olympics between the qualifiers and the finals of the Men's Halfpipe at the competition venue in Park City.

Throughout the years, Save Ferris experienced a number of changes in their lineup, most notably the departure of Brian Mashburn, the band's main songwriter, who quit in 2002.

[14] In 2003, Bill Uechi, Brian Mashburn, T-Bone Willy, Eric Zamora, and Oliver Zavala started the band Starpool with Alan Meade original member of No Doubt on vocals and Phil Hanson on drums.

[18] Additionally, in 2015, ASCAP songwriting records were updated, crediting Powell as co-writer on a number of Save Ferris songs for which her name had not previously been listed.
