When It Was Now by Atlas Genius
When It Was Now is an album by Atlas Genius, released in 2013. 1 song from it has charted on rock radio countdowns, with 12 countdown appearances in total. The biggest is “If So”, on 12 lists with a best position of #4.
When It Was Now, the debut album from Adelaide's Atlas Genius, arrived on Warner Bros. in February 2013, and it's built for sunny, windows-down driving: crisp guitar hooks from Keith Jeffery, who also sings lead, his brother Michael Jeffery's tidy drums and Darren Sell's keyboards shimmering underneath.
It climbed to No. 34 on the Billboard 200 and No. 10 on the Top Alternative Albums chart, and its only single, "If So", reached No. 8 on the Alternative Songs chart. By August 2015 it had sold 79,000 copies in the US. The band spent much of 2013 on the road in the US and the UK, and followed it with Inanimate Objects in 2015.
