Marcy Playground is a three-piece [[Alternative Rock]] band, consisting of John Wozniak on guitar and vocals, Dylan Keefe on bass, and Shlomi Lavie behind the kit. Since 1997, the band has released four full-length albums and one remix album. They are best known as the [[One-Hit Wonder]] band behind the song "Sex & Candy," which has frequently appeared on 90s compilations.
Their trademark approach is a mellow, mid-tempo [[The Nineties|1990s]] rock sound. The name "Marcy Playground" is named from the Marcy Open grade school in Minneapolis, an alternative school John Wozniak attended; much of his music was inspired by his youth, when he claims he was an "outsider."
