Busted Stuff is the fifth studio album by the American rock band Dave Matthews Band. It was released on July 16, 2002, through RCA Records. Much of the album's material was first recorded in 2000 during sessions with longtime producer Steve Lillywhite which were later scrapped. After the release of the Glen Ballard–produced Everyday in 2001, the band returned to the material, re-recording it with producer Stephen Harris.
Busted Stuff was a critical and commercial success. It became the band's third straight number one album in the U.S., and also topped the chart in Canada. "Where Are You Going", "Grace is Gone" and "Grey Street" were released as promotional singles; the former peaked at number 39 on the Billboard Hot 100. Reviews were positive, with many celebrating the return to the band's classic style after the more commercial sound of Everyday.
