American rock band The J. Geils Band got its start in Worcester, Massachusetts, in 1967.  1982 saw the release of their first hit, Centerfold, soon followed by the song Freezeframe from the album of the same name.  Although The J. Geils Band never truly broke up and continued to produce music through the ’90s, the band is currently believed to be on hiatus. As of 2008, singer Peter Wolf is working on a solo cd and is on tour with Kid Rock.
