Part 2/9:
The Birth of Metro Station and Social Media Roots
The band’s formation is rooted in the early days of social media, particularly MySpace, which was the primary platform for budding artists at the time. The duo uploaded music, shared pictures, and interacted with fans—creating a sense of community and discovery that predated platforms like TikTok or Instagram.
They emphasize the significance of MySpace as a hub for musical discovery, where they achieved notable success, reaching number three on the unsigned artist charts. It was from this platform that they caught the attention of major labels, leading to industry recognition.
