Episode 12: Should've Been Huge: The Churchills

Welcome to a new feature at ACRP, "Should've Been Huge," where we'll showcase a band or artist that should have been a household name, or at least a mid-level success.  The Churchills were a NYC-based powerpop band active 1997-2005, releasing four albums, Magnifique 400 in 1997, You Are Here in 2000, Big Ideas in 2002, and their last album, The Odds of Winning in 2005. They toured U.S., Europe, and Japan, with OK Go, The National and They Might Be Giants and their music was used in the Michael J. Fox sitcom Spin City, as well Scrubs, ER, The O.C., Third Watch, and MTV’s Juvies. And their song “Sometimes Your Best Isn’t Good Enough featured actor and future Golden Glone winner Oscar Isaac in the music video. Plus, Meadow Soprano wore their T-shirt in episodes of The Sopranos in seasons 2 & 3. The Churchills should've been huge!
