AJR is an American indie pop trio composed of multi-instrumentalist brothers Adam, Jack, and Ryan Met. The band writes, produces, and mixes their material in the living room of their apartment in New York City. Their most successful songs include "I'm Ready", "Burn the House Down", "Sober Up", "Weak", and "Bang!". In 2019, their third album Neotheater debuted at number 8 on the Billboard 200, and hit number one on the Top Rock Albums chart. "Bang!" is their highest charting song and only song to reach the top 10, peaking at number 8 on the Billboard Hot 100 on January 22, 2021.

The name "AJR" comes from the first initials of the three brothers, Adam, Jack, and Ryan. Their musical style has been described as "eclectic," combining elements of pop, doo-wop, electronic, and dubstep.
