In the fall of 2004, Micah Judd and Christopher Parker discussed plans for pursuing a musical endeavor that would stray from the growing hardcore music scene in the "hanging city" of Fort Smith, Arkansas. This project would later be known as Marca.

Judd and Parker were no strangers to the local scene. With Judd playing in Uses Fire, a rock band that featured Cory Putman (current singer for Norma Jean), and Parker playing in a local post-hardcore band called Enami, both were a part of noteworthy bands with plenty of talent. Throughout the year, however, both would witness the gradual demise of their short lived bands.

Briefly after discussing the formation of a new band, Judd and Parker recruited bassist Arthur Green of Living Sacrifice fame and drummer Eduardo Chew, a friend of Judd's living and studying in Fayetteville, AR. During the fall of 2005, only a year after the conception of Marca, Judd amiably parted ways with the band. In November, Marca worked with producer Barry Poynter (Dead Poetic, Zao, Living Sacrifice, The Juliana Theory) to track a 3 song demo without vocals. Early in 2006, the band recruited Jacob Yandell to fulfill the vacant singer role and immediately sent him into the studio to track vocals in May 2006. Late that summer, Chew enlisted his college friend, Brady Cress from Fayetteville, AR, as a second guitarist, thus solidifying the line up.

We are Marca.
