It's a bit of a risk naming a band after something so bland and unspectacular as a plain white t-shirt. But in many ways, the name is appropriate. Calling the Plain White T's bland is probably unfair, but the band possesses a certain familiarity and conveys a sense of comfort, as their music and image is unthreatening and comfortable.
While the band is known for their pop rock, acoustic guitar-driven sound ("Hey There Delilah," "1,2,3,4"), they also have a slightly heavier, electric side to their music persona.
