Marcy Playground

Dry, whispered alternative rock that feels like a private conversation. A collection of character sketches delivered with minimalist precision and a hazy, late-night edge.

Find on Amazon

It's like a collection of dark bedtime stories for adults who still miss the 90s.

A quiet, observant collection of stories that feels both intimate and slightly detached.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The claustrophobic, repetitive vocal delivery in Spoonfed that mimics the feeling of being trapped
The swaggering, almost feline bassline that carries the tongue-in-cheek confidence of Deadly Handsome Man
The transition into the hazy, cocktail-soaked atmosphere of Bar Fly to close the album
