From a basement in New Jersey to new LA digs, States & Capitals is a project by 21-year old Richie Arthur. In April 2015, while still living in Wyckoff, NJ the band released their debut four four-song EP titled, “Vacant - EP.” They released their second EP, “For Your Own Good - EP” later that same year. After the EP releases, the band dropped singles, “Crawling Right Back To You” and followed with “20.08” in early 2016, bridging the band's sound from a young Pop-Rock sound to a more mature New-Wave sound. After the move to LA, finished demos sent Richie on a trip to Nashville, TN to collaborate with producer Jonathan Roye (Owl City, Kelsea Ballerini, Forever The Sickest Kids) on an EP that would later be titled, “CREATIONS&MEMORIES - EP.”
