Wherever Did They Go? Why The Calling Disappeared After Delivering One of 2001’s Biggest Hits Billboard 5 days ago The Calling The early 2000s were a whirlwind for The Calling. At the turn of the millennium, the rock band was questioning whether their label would even give them a chance. By mid-2002, they had a 23-week Adult Top 40 No. 1 with the heartfelt hit “Wherever You Will Go.” In 2003, they were sued by former bandmates. And by the end of 2005, The Calling had almost completely vanished stateside. But the roller coaster was far from over, even when it seemed The Calling might be. Over the next 15 years, the group’s lead singer, Alex Band, was faced with a Parkinson’s diagnosis and a near-fatal kidnapping. And while The Calling has been revitalized with a new lineup, it hasn’t been without more drama: Band and his estranged Calling co-founder, guitarist Aaron Kamin, have filed lawsuits against each other.
