About Me

Rival City isn't a band, it's a place. A place where the people have their most creative out put, and where everybody does their best because everybody has an arch nemesis.2008 marks the official beginning of Rival City: Year 3 and it is gonna be a break out year. The sound is hot, the team is assembled, and the ambition is in overdrive. We're gonna party, we're gonna be in love, we're gonna dance, we're play, and we're gonna cry. We're gonna do all the things that you either don't have the time or the faculties to do. Because that's what music is. Stories you can feel; where you don't need to use your imagination because the music works on a deeper level.All you need to do is open your mind and be a part of the rapture.

Why Rival City is the best band name ever
