Don’t Kill The Magic! is MAGIC!’s major label debut album for the Toronto born, Los Angeles based quartet. USA Today made MAGIC! one of their On The Verge Artists and said that the album’s “musicianship and a charming, lyrical civility make it stand out,” while Yahoo Music stated, “Their instrumentation falls right into place with a fun, ska groove reminiscent of Sting’s classic ’80s material… but it’s also perfect for summer 2014.” Rolling Stone also called the album, “a shiny collection of breezy pop tunes often accented by laidback reggae rhythms, especially on song-of-the-summer contender “Rude.”  The band continues to garner national recognition with features in Entertainment WeeklyRolling StoneLos Angeles Times and USA Today.

MAGIC! distills a gentle Caribbean flavor with arena-size bombast sound that is driven by its expansive approach to songwriting and a strong musical chemistry. Nasri (lead singer) and Mark Pelli (guitar) deliver elements of reggae with a pop and rock vibe; while Ben Spivak (bass) and Alex Tanas (drums) inject the rock attitude to create an intoxicating musical experience.

Additionally MAGIC! is featured on Shakira’s latest self-titled release with “Cut Me Deep” and will open the summer with a song on the official One Love, One Rhythm: The Official 2014 FIFA World Cup™ compilation titled “This is Our Time (Agora é a nossa hora).”
