A highly original and melodic modern rock band, Marcy Playground exploded onto the scene back in 1997 with the insanely irresistible hit single “Sex And Candy,” a song that notched [futureusgallerya then-record] fifteen consecutive weeks at number one on Billboard’s U.S. Modern Rock tracks chart and a self-titled debut album that went on to sell 1.7 million copies. Subsequent albums Shapeshifter (1999) and Marcy Playground 3 (”MP3”) (2004) showcased two periods of tremendous creative evolution for the group.

On their riveting and keenly-anticipated fourth album, Leaving Wonderland… in a fit of rage, Marcy Playground return to action in triumphant fashion. Armed with songs born of an intense and turbulent period in his life, Marcy Playground’s main man, singer/guitarist John Wozniak, has fashioned a record that digs deep, taking the listener on an exhilarating and satisfying emotional and musical rollercoaster ride. Its creator is justifiably proud of his accomplishment, stating “this is the most personal record I’ve ever made, and I think it’s the thing that will connect most with other people.”
