Biography

When Wolf Bradley and Andrew Macatrao first met as teens, they didn’t expect that their journey would lead to a long path of friendship and being on the cusp of becoming breakthrough musicians. Especially when that first encounter took place at Bradley’s parent’s ballet school in San Pedro. After cycling through a number of names, Bradley and Macatrao soon settled on calling themselves The Habits. Their music quickly came together. The group’s melancholic lyrics are relatable, often telling stories of love, loss, and everything that could go right or wrong in between. Combine that with infectious bite-sized melodies, the recipe for success was there. In 2019, the group’s single “Casual” would spend eight weeks in the Top 5, peaking at No.1 on hometown rock radio tastemaker KROQ’s “Locals Only” playlist. SiriusXM’s Alt Nation and DC 101 added the song, quickly introducing the duo to a much wider audience. After “Casual,” The Habits could have settled into making disposable pop rock songs, but that’s not who they were. Instead of thinking outside the box, the band is making its own box. In 2020, The Habits decided to unleash their What’s the Worst That Can Happen? EP to the world. The single from the EP, “Shoulders,” is well on its way to a million streams. With a new EP titled I Think I’m Fine, But I Don’t Know set to arrive later this year, and a spring tour ahead, The Habits are ready to spread their message even farther than they have before.
