is an American alternative rock band consisting of three members: John Wozniak (lead vocals, guitar), Dylan Keefe (bass), and Shlomi Lavie (drums). The band is best known for their 1997 hit « Sex and Candy ».
Early years
Named for the formative location in lead singer John Wozniak’s childhood, the Marcy Open grade school in Minneapolis, Marcy Playground emerged in the late 1990s. They had been influenced heavily by Kurt Cobain and his band Nirvana. The influence is quite clear on Marcy Playground’s self-titled album, with songs like Shadow of Seattle and Saint Joe On The School Bus. Other influences include David Bowie, Paul Simon, Neil Young, Van Morrison, Jimi Hendrix, and the Beatles. Frontman John Wozniak’s first effort, Zog BogBean - From the Marcy Playground, was self-produced, recorded in his bedroom studio with some help from his then-girlfriend Sherry Fraser and her brother Scott in the early nineties. A small run of CDs were self-released by Wozniak, and to this day they remain extremely difficult to find. « Our Generation » and « Dog And His Master », two songs found on Wozniak’s Zog Bogbean project, would appear on later Marcy Playground albums. As of April 2009, Zog Bogbean is available for download at Marcy Playground’s official site as well as other outlets such as iTunes.

They may have been a one hit wonder, but their Self-titled and every album afterwards are bonafide hits. This has been one of the only bands from the 90's that had an amazing catalog, but didn't get the recognition they deserved.

just because a band is a one hit wonder doesn't mean they're a one good song wonder. [2] Exactly.
