Machree

Formed in 2008, Machree has always strived to combine innovation with accessibility. While many publications find it difficult to pigeon-hole the band into one particular genre, most designations fall somewhere between post-hardcore and progressive rock. Their clever, layered instrumental arrangements coupled with vocalist Patrick Baum's strong tenor and narrative lyrics have garnered them plenty of praise from many national critics. Through constant touring and staying true to writing music based on feel and not gimmick, Machree has established a loyal fanbase around the Midwestern region. On the heels of releasing their sophomore EP "Changer" produced by Kris Crummett (Closure In Moscow, Fear Before, PMtoday), they have begun extending that fanbase to other regions of the country by performing a week on the 2011 Vans Warped Tour and quickly following that up with an east coast tour. Currently Machree is back in their native STL, writing new material for their next release.
