Marcy Playground accepted that the possibility of living life as actual musicians was a real possibility when the band’s first fan club was started in 1979 by Rebecca Casas. The fan club grew from a few dozen to a few thousand after Sarah Van Hoos created a website for the band and a national tour gave the group plenty of exposure.

Members of Marcy Playground hope to team up with other artists during the tour. The group may have just completed their most current album, but they are planning the next release already.

Marcy Playground seamlessly blends the songs from the older release with tracks from their most current release. The group is sure to schedule a performance at Academic in Philadelphia every time they tour because they used to play there all the time before they made it big.
