In 2018 Mega Mango released their debut single, You Spent All Your Love. While it gained significant traction with the indie rock community, this success would be short-lived.

The pressures of young adulthood, compounded by a global pandemic, forced the band into a 2-year hiatus. In the midst of quarantine, members were scattered across the country. It seemed like Mega Mango was over just as soon as it had started.

Despite this, vocalist Crow Costello (they/them) and guitarist Alex Spagnolia (he/him) [aka diet lemon] remained close in Philly.
