JOEY INGRAM (plays drums)
Frigid and icy, the winter of 2004 gave birth to a band by the name of CITIES. Conceived in a marvelously heated practice
room in Chapel Hill, NC’s GO! Studios - brought up in grimy NC rock clubs like the Cat’s Cradle, Local 506 and Kings
Barcade - the group formed after UNC student, and classically trained musician, Josh Nowlan met a few like-minded music fans
named Robbie Mackey and Jeremy Pashcall.
After arguing over their favorite bands and discussing their appreciation for musical-restraint and macabre indie rock, a just-forfun
project had begun. Drummer Joey Ingram, whom Josh had known since high school, was stationed in nearby Greensboro,
NC, and after his percussion services were enlisted a mere month later, the band’s official lineup was set.
As they began writing, the confluence of Nowlan’s classical training, Mackey’s originality, and Paschall and Ingram’s punk and
hardcore pedigree produced a crisp, bombastic form of indie rock. A steadfast appreciation for the music of their youth found
itself coupled with a conscious decision to turn their sound away from the feverish and aggressive aesthetic they’d grown up on.
Deeply impassioned, without coming off as ham fisted and oafish, the music was epic, yet controlled, insistent, yet decidedly
serene.
Sharing the stage with such acts as Engine Down, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, I Love You But I’ve Chosen Darkness,
Thunderbirds are Now!, We are Scientists and Unwed Sailor, Cities quickly fine-tuned their brilliant live show and - on the
strength of a meager demo, recorded in two days with the consummate Nick Petersen (Dillinger Escape Plan, Bellafea) -
garnered the attention of powerhouse indie label, Yep Roc Records. After debuting their somber rock to wider audiences at the
CMJ music festival in NYC, Cities entered the swank home-studio of Brian Paulson (Beck, Slint, Superchunk) to record their selftitled
debut Yep Roc full-length in the fall 2005.
The self-titled debut is completed, and will street this April 18th, 2006. The release will come on the heels of the band’s ’06
SXSW appearances (Yep Roc showcase, Fader Magazine party, and the Yep Roc/HARP Magazine/KEXP day party), so be
sure to catch them in Austin if you’re in town.
Look for Cities in 2006, on the road in support of their debut release.
6. Cities in a Welsh post-rock and instrumental electronic band from Swansea, Wales. They have released on EP titled Manning Alaska in 2015.
7. Cities was a post-hardcore band from Palm Coast/Gainesville, Florida, United States.
The band did some demo songs in 2008 and 2009 that had a atmospheric ambient yet hard hitting post-hardcore sound. They had a feature from Brennan Taulbee from Oceana on one of their songs.

You'll Think of Me
Cities Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Had left me to believe
That girls don't wanna, girls don't wanna leave
The starry nights without a fear of heights
I can't recall, but I learned after all
That girls don't wanna, girls don't wanna fall
As your sweet dreams dissolve, I'll crash and burn
While your heart flutters free, I still can't breathe
As you stir in your sleep, I hope you think of me
A blissful way she whispered in my ear
Before she left, had me so convinced
That girls don't wanna, girls don't wanna leave
And Juliet's romantic balcony
Wears out the wall, and I learned after all
That girls don't wanna, girls don't wanna fall
As you doze off tonight, I'll toss and turn
As your sweet dreams dissolve, I'll crash and burn
While your heart flutters free, I still can't breathe
As you stir in your sleep, I hope you think of me
I feel alone
I hope my ghost, never leaves
'Cause when I'm home
Your painful memory, is always haunting me
As you doze off tonight, I'll toss and turn
As your sweet dreams dissolve, I'll crash and burn
While your heart flutters free, I still can't breathe
As you stir in your sleep, the thought is killing to me
When I see you around, my eyes get wide
When you race through my mind, I die inside
While your heart flutters free, I still can't breathe
As you stir in your sleep, I hope you think of me
I hope you think of me, I hope you think of me
The lyrics of Cities' song "You'll Think of Me" reflect the pain of heartbreak, particularly the idea that a partner has moved on while the other person remains stuck in the past. The first verse describes the feeling of being abandoned and deceived, as the singer's heart was broken and his trust betrayed, making him feel like he will never be able to move on. The following verse paints a picture of a carefree time with the former love, but it is now a memory that just intensifies the longing and pain. The chorus and the bridge speak of the burning desire of the singer for his former love's attention, even if it's just a thought. He tosses and turns as he imagines her sleeping peacefully, while he is consumed by his overwhelming emotions.
The song effectively communicates the hurt, heartbreak, and longing that can come from lost love. The songwriter uses beautiful poetic language to paint vivid pictures in the listener's mind, such as Juliet's romantic balcony wearing out the wall or a blissful whisper in one's ear. The song has a melancholic and bittersweet tone that will resonate with anyone who has gone through a similar experience.
