Copeland

Playing moody but thoughtful indie rock with a literate lyrical perspective, Florida's Copeland rose to national success in the middle part of the 2000s thanks to albums like 2006's Eat, Sleep, Repeat and 2008's You Are My Sunshine. After disbanding in 2009, the group reunited for 2014's Ixora and remained active, delivering their sixth album, Blushing, in 2019.

As the group's popularity grew, a number of fans and journalists described Copeland as a Christian rock band, given the spiritual themes of some of their songs. However, principal songwriter Marsh rejected the tag, telling one reporter that while some of the group's members were devout Christians, "We have no agenda in our band other than art."
