The current members of The New Cities are David Brown, Christian Bergeron, Nicolas Denis, Francis Fugere, Philippe Lachance, and Julien Martre.

Early years

The band recorded their first EP album with producer Steve Nadeau in Montreal, Quebec, Canada in early 2006. They independently released it under the name "The New Cities EP" a few months later and started touring Canada. The band met producer Greig Nori in the spring of 2006 and started working with him on new material which led to signing a record deal with Sony Music Canada in October 2008.

Lost In City Lights

Following their signing with Sony Music Canada, the band released their first full-length album Lost in City Lights in May 2009.

Their debut single Dead End Countdown peaked at No. 16 on the Canadian Hot 100, won the 2010 SOCAN Pop/Rock Music Award and was nominated in 2 categories at the Canadian Radio Music Awards. The music video for Dead End Countdown was nominated at the 2009 MuchMusic Video Awards.

The New Cities' second single "Leaders Of The Misled" was featured in the TV movie Degrassi Takes Manhattan, part of Season 9 of the TV series The Next Generation. The track "Lost in City Lights" was featured in the third season of Gossip Girl.

In support of Lost in City Lights, TNC has toured with acts such as Simple Plan, Hedley, Marianas Trench, Carly Rae Jepsen, ILL Scarlett, Mobile, Faber Drive and Ten Second Epic. They have opened for major acts such as The Black Eyed Peas, Katy Perry, NIN, Sum 41 and Metric. They have also toured the UK twice and France in the winter of 2009-2010.

Kill the Lights

The band's second album, Kill the Lights has been released on September 27, 2011. The first single called "Heatwave", co-written by the band and The Matrix, has been released on June 16, 2011. It features a melody from the song Tarzan Boy, popularized in 1985 by Baltimora.[2] Singles "The Hype" and "Mugshot" were released along with Franglais versions.

Following the release of their new album, the band joined Avril Lavigne in Canada to support her 2011 Black Star Tour in October. Notable performances in 2012 include the SXSW festival in Austin, Texas and the Bamboozle festival in Asbury Park, New Jersey.
