Public Access T.V. were an American band formed in New York City in 2014.
 The group has supported notable acts such as The Pixies, Weezer, The Killers, Kings of Leon, and others. They have also received critical acclaim from Rolling Stone, The New York Times, Fader, Zane Lowe, The Guardian, USA Today, NME, BBC, and other outlets.
 The band's East Village loft exploded in the 2015 East Village gas explosion.
 Frontman, John Eatherly dropped out of high school at the age of 16 to pursue music full-time. For the next several years he played in various projects as a hired musician (most notably as one of the drummers of Nashville garage punk band, be your own PET) and wound up in New York City. He eventually began working on his own songs and formed "Public Access TV".
 When the group put their first ever track "Monaco" online in January 2014, the song immediately received praise from various music publications including NME, who called the group 'New York's Hottest New Band'. The group gave their first ever live performance later that month, it was held in New York and was sold-out.
 That spring, the band headed to the UK where they performed a series of secret warm-up concerts under fake names in preparation for their appearance at various music festivals. The band performed at the Great Escape and London Calling festivals. These performances led The Guardian to run a feature on Public Access TV and their potential to ignite a revival for New Wave music.
 In November 2014, Public Access TV released their debut single "In The Mirror" in the UK to critical acclaim. To promote the song, the band returned to the UK where they did a support tour and also played their first headlining London concert.

To promote the release, the band embarked on two U.S. tours, one supporting Gang of Four and the other supporting Palma Violets.
 In the summer of 2015 the band announced they would be relocating for a few months to London to record their debut album and sort out their living situation after losing their loft. Frontman, John Eatherly, announced an open call for house shows while the band was in the UK. While in Europe the band also supported The Strokes at Hyde Park as well as performed at the Festival Internacional de Benicàssim in Spain and the Positivus Festival in Latvia.
 In Fall of 2015 the band supported Hinds on a full US support tour and released the AA-sided single "In Love and Alone" / "Patti Peru". "In Love and Alone" was premiered by Zane Lowe on Beats 1 Radio who gave the band his stamp of approval by playing the track twice in a row. Both tracks have gone on to receive wide critical acclaim. The track was chosen by Rolling Stone magazine as one of the top 5 songs of the month.
 From the winter to summer of 2016 the band finished recording their debut album as well as completed several more European tours. The band also performed at several music festivals including Governors Ball Music Festival, Bonnaroo Music Festival, and the Milan-based i-Days Festival.
