about
Myka, Relocate was a metalcore (2012-2020)/progressive post-hardcore (2007-2011) band from Lafayette, Louisiana, United States who later relocated to Houston, Texas. They were first formed in Louisville, Kentucky in 2007. Their sound on their first two releases are more of a creative ambient post-hardcore sound. The band members began making a name for themselves in their hometown and found a loyal audience in Lafayette, Louisiana, but their fortunes took a major turn in 2010 when they relocated to Houston, Texas and added dueling vocalists Michael Swank (clean vocals) and John Ritter (screaming). As the alternating vocals gave Myka, Relocate a singular sound and guitarist Dore began adding electronics to the group's aural palette, their following grew, aided by extensive touring. In 2013, Sam Albarado left Myka, Relocate, and Aaron Robertson became the band's new drummer; that same year, the band signed a record deal with Artery Recordings, distributed by the well-established indie label Razor & Tie, and went into the studio with producer Cameron Mizell behind the controls. Myka, Relocate's debut album, Lies to Light the Way, was released in October 2013. The group toured extensively in support, and in 2015 they returned to the recording studio to begin work on their second album. In October 2015, the completed album, The Young Souls, was released. The band ended in the fall of 2020. Discography: October 2015 - The Young Souls (Artery Recordings) October 2013 - Lies To Ligh
