Happy MLK Day!

I found this band over the summer during some downtime at my internship and was really impressed that, at the time, they had only been a band for a little over a year and they already had so much under their belt. Polished tracks, huge gigs, a big fanbase - Now they've been together for almost two years and I wouldn't be surprised if big, big things keep happening for them. Jacqui's voice is really powerful and the band is solid.



Forming in March 2009, New York based My Arcadia wasted no time establishing a name for themselves. The band’s singer, Jacqui Sandell, fits the band perfectly, in an era where female-fronted groups are a rarity. Her pop melodies coalesced with intense, hard-hitting music provides a perfect blend that defines the band’s sound.

Within months of their development, My Arcadia teamed up with producer, Paul Leavitt (All Time Low, Senses Fail) in Baltimore, Maryland. The band left the studio with a solid five-track EP, “City By The Sea” which allowed them to tour the east coast region and play sold-out opening gigs, further proving their hard work and steadfast dedication.
