Hailing from San Antonio, The Black Market Club is an indie-rock quintet specializing in catchy lyrics, moving melodies, and driving riffs. The band has been described as “a taste of hardcore, a pinch of progressive rock, and a dash of upbeat indie-rock”, and has been compared to the likes of Circa Survive, Manchester Orchestra, and Local Natives.
On April 5th of 2013, the band released their debut EP “Faults & Fractures”, a culmination of experiences and feelings expressed through seven memorable tracks. In the first year, Faults & Fractures has gained a high level of recognition from multiple platforms, including the title of “second best cd” and “second best new song: Pieces” by the San Antonio Current.
At the beginning of 2015, The Black Market Club announced it’s sophomore EP, titled “Bad Habits.” The highly-anticipated album is a far more refined sound and style in comparison to their first CD, but still keeps to the pop-rock roots people love. The CD is set for release in the summer of 2015.
Since it’s formation, The Black Market Club has had the opportunity to share the stage with Hawthorne Heights, Glassjaw, The Kin, Finish Ticket, The Soil & The Sun, Kellen & Me, The Heroine, The Last Place You Look, Adema, and others.
