  • Bio

    The Orkids are an electro-rock band out of Athens, Georgia, founded in late 2008 by guitarist Adam Monica and singer Sandra Gallardo. The group recently transformed from a studio project between Adam and Sandra to a five-piece rock outfit comprised of veteran Athens musicians. With the addition of Joshua Schwarber (Keyboards), Brad Lee Zimmerman (Drums), and Sheldon Wolfe (Bass), The Orkids combine danceable beats and edgy guitar/synth lines with catchy girl/boy vocals to deliver thrilling, infectious pop. In late Summer of 2009, The Orkids completed their first EP entitled "Paper Dolls." "A truly remarkable ensemble" ..- The Red and Black "(The Orkids') "Paper Dolls" sounds totally pro and the hit making potential is strong." ..- Michelle Gilzenrat, The Flagpole"Their sound is pop at its finest.... It's infectious enough to listen to over and over again, which is just what The Orkids want."..- Maggie Summers, BLUR Magazine We just received 2 Platinum.. Audionaut Awards (Auddys™)!! HSS scores: "Paper Dolls" - 8.9 "What Is It With Me" - 7.5

    You guys/gal are awesome.  I went to your show at the 40 Watt when you released your EP but ended up leaving before you even played.  So a few days ago I finally put in your EP and every song on it is really good.  How are you not famous yet? haha.  Anyways, good luck with your band.
