Rough around the edges yet so loveable at the same time, Marcy Playground have been wowing audiences since the late 20th century with their catchy lyrics and rock & roll riffs. Since their most major single release in 1997 entitled 'Sex And Candy', a song supposedly about lead singer John Wozniak's girlfriend cheating on him, Marcy Playground have established a strong discography of six albums to date, the most recent being released two years ago. The American trio consistently produce easy-listening music with memorable riffs and hooks whilst still keeping alive the essence of the 90's, an ethos that has never been proved truer than with their set at the sold out Summerland Tour in 2012. Performing in an exquisite venue, Marcy Playground were not concerned with the glitz and glamour that more modern musicians fuss over: Dylan Keefe plays the riffs accompanied by Shlomi Lavie on drums whilst John Wozniak sings his heart out as they all impress on stage wearing t-shirts and jeans. The music compliments their fashion choices - simple yet so effective. The initial release from the 2012 album 'Lunch, Recess & Detention' called 'Mr Fisher' has seen the band show their versatility by implementing reggae influences via the steel drums and beat patterns, showing that an old dog can indeed learn new tricks. It will be interesting to see how Marcy Playground develop their style to maybe suit other genres of music in the future.
F**king great dude. Best night of my life. Front row, great songs, and lots of people getting it. 11/10 would see again. One of my favorite bands, I even have two tattoos for them! The shirts were almost all sold out but got a tank top.
