The Magic City Official

Formed in 2023, The Magic City represents both a homecoming and a reinvention for a group of musicians who've been embedded in Boston's indie scene for nearly two decades. Their sound feels like a well-loved record collection passed down through generations — spinning from the melodic adventurousness of the Beatles in the mid-1960s, through the cinematic cool of the Psychedelic Furs, the abrasive surf-noise of the Pixies, and the sharp-tongued poetry of Pulp — with hooks and ear candy that reveal new layers with every spin.
