  Boardman Native Anthony LaMarca Will Appear On Fallon Show

Anthony LaMarca
     Boardman native Anthony LaMarca will appear Mon., Jan. 6 on the late-night Jimmy Fallon Show as a member of the War on Drugs Band.
      LaMarca, a 2005 graduate of Boardman High School, graduated from the The New School for Jazz and Contemporary Music in New York City in 2009. The day after his graduation, he went on tour as the drummer with a group called St. Vincent.
      “Anthony LaMarca is [a] boy wonder, boy genius. He graduated from college and then the next day he went on tour with me, forever. He’s just a delight. He’s so funny. He came in and tried out and he’s just like, everything about what he did was meticulous. Like, he had a very good sounding snare and he brought it. Everything about it—about him—you could tell there was care and thought put into everything he did,” said Annie Clark of St. Vincent.
      The War on Drugs is an American indie rock band from Philadelphia, Pa., formed in 2005. LaMarca, best-noted locally as a drummer, plays the guitar for the band.
      LaMarca and his brother, Angelo, co-founded a record label, Primary Records, in Brooklyn, New York, in 2011. The label features his band, ‘The Building,’ that also includes his brother and former Boardman High School classmates Megan Sears (cello) and Andrew Carlson (bass), with Kentucky native Jason Lawrence (drums).
      The War on Drugs latest album, Lost in the Dram, has been voted among the top releases in 2014. Following its appearance on the Fallon show, the group will leave for a tour that includes shows at Albert Hall in London, England; as well as venues in Spain and Norway.
