We Are the In Crowd is an American pop punk band from Poughkeepsie, New York, formed in 2009. The band consists of Taylor Jardine (vocals), Jordan Eckes (guitar/vocals), Mike Ferri (bass), Rob Chianelli (drums), and Cameron Hurley (guitar).[1] They released their debut EP, Guaranteed To Disagree,[2] on June 8, 2010 and followed it up with their first full-length album, Best Intentions in 2011.

In April 2009, the band's MySpace page was hacked. The hacker deleted all of the band's friends and music. The music site, Absolutepunk.net, posted a news article about the hacking.[3] The news post attracted the attention of someone at Hopeless Records who contacted the band shortly after.[4] On November 10, 2009, the group announced their signing with Hopeless Records as "The In Crowd" and released their first single "For The Win" on iTunes. The band changed their name to "We Are the In Crowd" due to trademark issues with a reggae band from the seventies who were also called "The In Crowd" [5]

In February 2009, We Are The In Crowd recorded their debut Hopeless Records EP with producers Zack Odom and Kenneth Mount (All Time Low, Mayday Parade, Jimmy Eat World, Cartel). The EP, titled Guaranteed To Disagree, was released on June 8, 2010.[6]

The music video for "Both Sides of the Story" was officially released on October 15, 2010.[7] The music video for "Never Be What You Want" was released on April 20, 2011. The band performed on the Vans Warped Tour for Summer 2010.

The band entered the studio in early May 2011 to begin recording their full length debut.[8] On August 3rd, 2011 it was announced the album would be titled Best Intentions and that it would be released October 4th. It debuted on the US Billboard 200 at No. 122.
