The Atlantic Light was created in December 2011 with the line up consisting of former members of various local Maryland bands. Created from the mind of Sonam Tandin Wong, he contacted drummer JJ Foley and bassist Chris Ingram, two other Maryland musicians. The band lineup was set, and after a few days in the studio, The Atlantic Light was born. The band released their self titled EP on Jan 11th, 2012, and looks to take the upcoming year head on.
