Cheshire Cat is the debut studio album by American rock band Blink-182 (then known as simply Blink), released on February 17, 1995, by Cargo Music. The trio, composed of guitarist Tom DeLonge, bassist Mark Hoppus, and drummer Scott Raynor, formed in 1992 and recorded three demos that impressed the San Diego-based Cargo label. The album captures the band at a formative and early stage, blending power-chord riffs, brisk tempos, and melodic hooks with irreverent humor and juvenile antics.
