About Us

Modern Day Idols (MDI) are an indie pop-rock band formed in Boston in May 2011 by veteran Boston singer-songwriter Chris Wagner. MDI was born of the love for honest, memorable, melodic, and energetic rock. MDI saw their live debut in the Fall of 2011 and following a short tour to refine their live act, spent Winter 2012 through Summer of 2013 hard at work recording new material at Q Division and Rocksalt Studios with producer Craig Small. The band's debut CD titled "Almost Glad To See You," was released on September 7, 2013, and the band gigged extensively from 2013-2016 behind the record. After a brief creative hiatus and lineup change, MDI  returned to live performances featuring new members lead guitarist Tony Savarino, bassist Tommy Lada, and drummer Stephen Hart! MDI spent most of 2019 recording their sophomore EP eponymously titled "Modern Day Idols," with three time Grammy Award winning producer Ducky Carlisle at Ice Station Zebra Studios, and the album was digitally released on March 27, 2020.

MDI's Album Release Show Party for "Modern Day Idols was finally realized in front of a full room of fans on Saturday 9/18/21 at The Square Root in Roslindale MA!

Modern Day Idols are  currently developing a batch of new songs with new bassist Sean McLaughlin and keyboardist Jeff Calder and plan to record them in early 2023 at 37’ft. Productions.

Modern Day Idols have a full schedule of live performances
booked through October 2022.
