Biography
Linqo is an ambient indie rock band from Orlando, FL. The group has had some members come and go, but their stage presence in the downtown music scene remains strong, playing alongside bands such as The Life and Times, Patternist, Chasing Jonah, and The Stolen. The band consists of Marco Miller, Ellie Kim, Josh Petit, and Thomas Re.
In January of 2017, the group released their first 3-song self-titled EP, "Linqo", recorded at Reel Feel Recording with the popular song "Veruca Plays with Voodoo". The band released their 5-song sophomore EP, "Nomadic", recorded at Red Oak Collective in May of 2018.

Press
"The 5 songs featured on "Nomadic" do a really great job at portraying [Linqo]'s vision, presenting a sound that falls somewhere in between catchy hooks, hypnotic grooves, and lush ambient textures." - Andrew
TheBandCampDiaries
"Linqo goes for a colorful dreamy world with the life-affirming "Nomadic". Over the course of the collection they draw from shoegaze, pop, ambient, with elements of post-rock thrown in for good measure. The result from all this stylistic variation is a sound that feels so rich, so vibrant and done with such perfection." -

"Linqo understands better than most that you can make an impression through clever construction, musical textures, cinematic arrangements and well thought out dynamics. And Nomadic is a five track slice of exactly that." - Dave Franklin
