Tallyhall

Tally Hall is an American indie rock band formed in Ann Arbor, Michigan in December 2002. Their YouTube account was created in 2006 and they have posted over 100 videos since then. They are known for their contrast of upbeat and motivational songs, paired with their more serious and deep songs. They also ran an internet show on their website from 2008 to 2009 titled Tally Hall's Internet Show (often abbreviated to THIS). The show aired 10 episodes. Their music has been widely used in many modern internet memes and videos.
==Content==
The tallyhall channel's content consisted of music videos of various songs from their two studio albums, Marvin's Marvelous Mechanical Museum (2005) and Good & Evil (2011). A large portion of the content was also skits from their internet show. Many of the videos were completely random. There is also a vlogging series named "BORALOGUE", which was filmed and narrated by the band's friend, Bora Karaca.https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLB190B37D222A346F

==History==
Tally Hall would release their first studio album, Marvin's Marvelous Mechanical Museum, in October 2005. Not long after, their YouTube channel was created on June 28, 2006. Nothing was uploaded there until September of that year, though. The first video, titled "MISFORTUNE" is a short music video featuring calm instrumentals and upbeat singing which Andrew would use to make “Lemons and Pears” on his alias, “edu”. In May 2007, the band members went to New York City and filmed a 4-part vlog about it."NYC I: RE-MMMM""NYC II: ROCK GTR""NYC III: I'M SUPERMAN""NYC IV: FIREWORKS" The channel didn't post again until December 2008 when posting a single video, that being the music video for their song The Whole World and You.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A-ZUo62N7Kc
They went inactive on YouTube once again until May 2010 where they uploaded the bulk of their videos. Music videos, vlogs, and skits were rapidly uploaded throughout the month, already recorded and released elsewhere and being put onto YouTube. They then slowed down with the uploads but still continued. Their album Good & Evil was released in June 2011. The album was recorded in the fall of 2009 and completely finished in early 2010 though due to complications with their record label, the album was continuously delayed.
The tallyhall channel's final upload was an animated music video for their Good & Evil song "Turn the Lights Off", uploaded on October 18, 2011.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dLrdSC9MVb4 The band, as well as the channel, have been on hiatus since late 2011 and the members have gone on to their own independent projects. They still appeared in each other's new songs, though.
Tally Hall's 2005 song "Ruler of Everything" gained traction in late 2020 and early 2021 as people began making memes out of mainly the second verse of the song.https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/ruler-of-everything-do-you-like-how-i-walk This was soon followed by "Turn the Lights Off", "Hidden in the Sand", and "The Bidding" also going viral. Some meme videos by Tally Hall, mainly the "What You Don't Know" series, also became viral, as several of the videos were put into meme compilations. These boosts resulted in many new fans of the band, who were disappointed to see that the band had been on hiatus for nearly 10 years at that point. It is not likely that the band will ever make a comeback considering recent statements made by members of the band regarding Hawley and his mental wellbeing,https://audiophix.com/posts/joe-hawley-legal-issues-thrilling-self-titled-album-01hvf8d6rfw5 despite their collaboration with Youtooz not long afterhttps://x.com/youtooz/status/1699486510393806950 and promises for a return by Hawley.
Zubin, though most likely joking, has said that in a Spotify Wrapped artist message on the behalf of the band that they will reunite when they hit 30 or 40 million listeners on the platform.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0qR44yWYy18
