The Yardley band is reuniting for a massive tour.

After ten years of inactivity, a big name in the emo scene is making their return, with the Bucks County natives gearing up for a tour. Noah Zucker wrote about the group for PhillyVoice.

Algernon Cadwallader was formed by high school friends from Yardley back in 2005. After some successful singles, albums, and bring the Philadelphia DIY punk scene to the public eye, the group disbanded in 2012.

Now, the band, named after Yardley’s first mayor, is reuniting for a tour around the Philadelphia region and beyond, with hometown shows at Union Transfer in Philadelphia scheduled for Oct. 22 and 24.

An eclectic group, whose musical stylings go outside the walls of traditional emo and punk bands, the musicians incorporate the technicality of math rock into the more steady and heavy sounds of their given genre. Their two albums, Some Kind of Cadwallader (2008) and Parrot Flies (2011) garnered national attention during and after their first tenure.

The Yardley group is not the only local emo artist staying active. Earlier this month, Anthony Green, a Doylestown native and the frontman of emo legends Saosin, alt rockers Circa Survive, and new supergroup L.S. Dunes, announced that he had worked on the music for the upcoming “Blue’s Clues” movie.
