Coheed and Cambria (also Coheed & Cambria) are an American progressive rock band from Nyack, New York, formed in 1995. It consists of Claudio Sanchez (vocals, guitars, keyboards), Travis Stever (guitars, vocals), Josh Eppard (drums, keyboards, backing vocals), and Zach Cooper (bass, backing vocals).[1] The group's music incorporates aspects of progressive rock, pop, heavy metal, and post-hardcore.[2]

All of Coheed and Cambria's albums except for 2015's The Color Before the Sun are concept albums based on a science fiction storyline called The Amory Wars, a series written by Claudio Sanchez, which has been transcribed into a series of comic books as well as a full-length novel.[3] The band has released ten studio albums, three live albums, and several special-edition releases. Six of their albums have reached the Billboard Top 10.[4] The band's tenth studio album, Vaxis – Act II: A Window of the Waking Mind, was released in 2022.
