Arlie is an indie-pop band based in Nashville, Tennessee, known for their vibrant blend of retro-pop melodies and modern production. The project began in 2015 as the solo endeavor of Nathaniel Banks, who was a student at Vanderbilt University. Initially, Banks recorded music in his dorm room, but as the project gained traction, he expanded it into a full band. By 2017, Arlie had evolved into a live act, performing with members including Carson Lystad (guitar), Adam Lochemes (drums), and Tyler Waters (multi-instrumentalist).
