   About The Positions
Very simply and believably, the Positions are a six piece band from Washington DC. We worship at the altar of the pop single.

The band was started by Ivan Ramiscal, formerly of DC indiepop band Barcelona, and is fronted by Nicole Stoops, who also handles the vocals in NYC-based band Charming.
