Walk the Moon are from Ohio. Their moms are cute and batty and their dads are big and strong. While singing a capella in college, listening to a lot of Talking Heads, and chasing down degrees in Music Theory, Walk the Moon formed out of a love for creative pop songs and exuberant live performances and safari animals. In 2008 Walk the Moon's debut EP 'The Anthem' stirred up attention from the likes of CityBeat Magazine and FOX News and even took them to London, UK; there they played a week of shows at the London City Showcase as the only band from North America to be selected by Sonicbids for the spot. Since then, led by singer/synth-player Nicholas Petricca, Walk has continued to make noise around the US, named by New York City's historic Arlene's Grocery one of their 'Best Bands of 2009' and by promoters at NYC's Highline Ballroom "one of the best young bands [they] have seen in a long time".
