Vattica

VATTICA is an American Alternative rock Pop music band from Los Angeles, California. The band consists of Alexander Millar (lead vocals, guitar, keyboards) and Prentice (drums, percussion, backing vocals). They are signed to Another Century Records / Sony Music.

Formed in early 2013, the band quickly built a local following in Southern California, including on the infamous Sunset Strip, performing at legendary venues such as The Viper Room, The Roxy Theater and The Troubadour. VATTICA's bombastic and energetic live show caught the attention of Another Century / Sony Music, who promptly offered the band a recording contract in 2015.

VATTICA is noted for their energetic live performances and for their fresh and unique take on a familiar and widely embraced genre of music. They have been compared to artists such as 30 Seconds To Mars, Green Day, Muse, Our Lady Peace, U2, Depeche Mode and One Republic.

VATTICA started in 2013 in Los Angeles, California as a collaboration between Alexander Millar, Prentice and Joey Jane (their original bass player). The band played its first concerts under different names before settling on the name "VATTICA", which is an invented combination of syllables the band felt fit them, as well as a nod to the film Gattaca, which is one of Alexander and Prentice's favorite movies.

By 2014 the group had performed at various notable venues and clubs around Los Angeles and Southern California, including The Roxy Theater, The Whiskey a Go-Go, The Viper Room and The Troubadour. The group's demo album had been in the works for a year, with each member writing and contributing musical ideas and Alexander penning the lyrics. During this time the band recorded a single entitled "Run, Baby" featuring guest vocals by Ron Underwood of 9Electric.
