So many bands try fusing pop and rock, but few do it as well as Lifehouse, a West Coast quartet enjoying the success of another hit album.

Lifehouse, which comes to the House of Blues with Mozella on February 3, arrived on the post-grunge scene nearly 10 years ago, signed a deal with Dreamworks and debuted with a successful album and hit single, "Hanging by a Moment," the most played track of 2001.

After an acclaimed but not as successful sophomore release, the band is back sounding better than ever with a self-titled set that went on to sell more than 500,000 copies thanks to the single "You and Me," which hit No. 1 on the Adult Top 40 chart and was nominated for a 2005 Radio Music Award for Song of the Year in the Adult Hit radio category. The album debuted at No. 10 on the Billboard 200 chart.

The band recently released Everything, the Los Angeles band's first DVD that includes every Lifehouse music video along with live footage shot earlier this year at the Roseland Theater in Portland. The DVD includes videos for "Hanging By A Moment," "Sick Cycle Carousel," "Breathing," "Spin," "You And Me" and "Blind" with live performances of "Come Back Down," "Days Go By," "Everything" and "You And Me."

Expect to hear all of Lifehouse's big hits plus a bunch of tunes from the new record when they hit Atlantic City.
