History

In 2003, Tangiers included Marco Montez, Yuri Didrichsons, Josh Reichmann (vocals/guitars) and James Sayce (vocals/guitars).[1][2] The band's 2003 album Hot New Spirit topped the campus and community radio charts.[3][4]

Reichmann and Sayce reformed Tangiers after the other two band members left the band that year, adding ex-Guided by Voices drummer Jon McCann and keyboardist Shelton Deverell to the lineup.[5] The band released two more albums, Never Bring You Pleasure in 2004 and The Family Myth in 2005.[6][7]

In 2013 the band reunited after a long hiatus to perform at Toronto's North by Northeast festival.[8]
