There are at least nine bands called Polaris.
1. Polaris was a one-off musical project in the mid-1990s involving members of the New Haven indie rock band
Miracle Legion.
Mark Mulcahy, Spot "Scott" Boutier, and Dave McCaffrey performed music for the Nickelodeon television show The Adventures of Pete & Pete under the name Polaris because a fourth Miracle Legion member was not available at the time; occasional guests included Joyce Raskin, Dennis Kelly, and Buell Thomas.
Polaris performed many of the songs featured on the show, including the theme song, "Hey Sandy", and its members took "TV names": Mulcahy was "Muggy", Boutier was "Jersey", and McCaffrey was "Harris Polaris." In addition to appearing in the opening credits of each show, the band featured prominently in the episode "A Hard Day's Pete", in which Little Pete (Danny Tamberelli) is mesmerized by a garage band's song (Polaris' "Summerbaby") and forms his own band to keep the tune in his memory.
Music from The Adventures of Pete & Pete, released in 1999 on Mulcahy's Mezzotint label, contains many of the songs Polaris recorded for the show and is the group's only album release.
2. A Japanese band consisting of ex-LaB LIFe vocalist Ohya Yusuke and ex-Fishmans bassist Kashiwabara Yuzuru.
3. French DJ and Producer, also known as DJ Arno.
4. Polish electronic music project , established in 1999 by Jakub Kmiec.
5. British post-hardcore/emocore band from 1993-2006.
