About this concert
Marah in the Mainsail is performing at GMan Tavern with Wild Skies and Distant Brothers!Cinematic is the word most often used to describe Marah in the Mainsail's sound. Precise yet primitive jungle drums set the stage for the eclectic and powerful ensemble to sweep you away into their haunting world. Like oil and water, Durry's gravel voice alongside Mariah Mercedes's crystal clarity form a stirring, yet beautiful contrast. All being thrusted foreword by aggressive percussion, growling bass, and soaring brass. Their lyrics paint a thrilling picture of monsters and ghosts, murderers and thieves, love and guilt, and everything in between.While Wild Skies has carved out their own, unique sound at the intersection of folk, rock and Americana, the band members have come from all different musical backgrounds, each of them bringing a different perspective to the collaboration. That diversity, at its core, is what has helped Wild Skies forge their own path and distinctive sound.With a dynamic blend of folk, rock, bluegrass and world music Distant Brothers brings a unique sound to any project they take on. Their most recent album, Upon Our Arrival, typifies this diversity while showcasing myriad styles and instruments. The bedrock of the band's sound is their ability to join their four distinct voices into rich harmonies. Whether playing barn-burning bluegrass music to a raucous crowd or delicate soul stirring ballads to intimate audiences, Distant Brothers' goal is and always has been to bring people together with their music.Presented by Last Triumph7PM / 21+ / $10

Marah in the Mainsail Biography

Cinematic is the word most often used to describe Minneapolis based Marah in the Mainsail. The sound is dark and mysterious at it’s core. With layers upon layers of dynamic turns, from the hopeful highs of “Fox hole” to the guttural darkness of “the Great Beyond’. Between Durry’s true grit voice, and Sabol's tender subtlety, you’ll find a vast array of narrative and stylistic possibilities. With imposing and wild jungle drums, soaring brass horns, growling bass, and shimmering spaghetti western guitars, all blanketed under a sinister vintage organ. This band has all of the tools it needs to paint an epic picture, "We set out to create something new. Something outside the industry standard. Something hard to define, but easy understand. We strive to bring the in depth experience of the cinema and literature to the modern music scene. Please join us in this grand experiment of the arts."
