All Music Guide know's what's up!

Bassist, singer and songwriter Lisa Marr has built a career around her creative diversity, having worked with cuddle-core favorites Cub and garage-flavored punk-popsters Buck before striking out on her own with the alt-country influenced quintet The Lisa Marr Experiment. Born in Canada, Marr cut her musical teeth in Vancouver, British Columbia, when she joined Cub in 1992 after meeting bandmates Robynn Iwata and Valeria Fellini while all three were working at the same college radio station. Cub's cheerful pop-punk sound won them a significant following in both Canada and the United States. The band amicably parted ways in 1997, and Marr moved to Los Angeles, California, where she quickly got back in the game with Buck, whose line-up also included percussionist Lisa G. (who played drums in a latter lineup of Cub), and guitarist Pepper Berry. During their two years together, Buck earned a loyal following in California and went through a number of drummers before calling it quits in 2000. True to form, Marr immediately moved on to her next project, The Lisa Marr Experiment, which pared back a bit of the punk-styled energy of her earlier material in favor of a sound influenced by the high and lonesome approach of country music. Working with multi-instrumentalist Mike Flanagan, drummer Sherri Solinger (who played with Buck for a spell), and steel guitarist Freddie Karl Sablan, Jr., Marr and the Experiment released their debut album, 4 AM, in 2000; one of the songs from the album was later covered by Canadian alt-country sensation Neko Case, who had briefly been a member of one of the latter lineups of Cub. In 2003, the group's second set, American Jitters, hit the racks, with the band growing to a five piece with the addition of guitarist Martin Beal.

One day as I was listening to some of Ms. Case's music I came upon a band called "cub"... to be more specific, I came across the song "Nicolas Bragg". And I loved it. So I kept listening to it, and slowly I came across more songs by cub, The Beards, Buck, and The Lisa Marr Experiment... I can't stop listening.
You rocked my world upside down.
Unfortunately we don't get any ( ANY!! ) of your music down here, so I'm surviving off of YouTube videos. But it's okay, at least I get to listen to the music.

I hope everything is going well. (I also watched a small part of the movie on.. I can't remember where, but I loved it).

Take Care! :)

Hi Lisa,

Long-time admirer of your work here. Saw Cub in Birmingham, Alabama in 1995 on a bill with The Queers and The Muffs and again in Atlanta late in 1996 opening for TMBG (one of Cub's last shows, if memory serves). Which is a long way of saying "thanks for the add."

Lisa Marr, Catkins welcome you to our bird hide of pop, come join us and perch upon a splintery bench with your binoculars of indie as we quietly look upon the birdies and marvel in their lustre and pretty feathers and pointy beaks of rhythm and melody.

"So let's sink another drink
'Cause it'll give me time to think
If I had the chance
I'd ask the world to dance
And I'll be dancing with myself." - Billy Idol

Have a blast celebrating, Lisa. And here's a toast to the New Year... the year of the Pig/Boar.

Cheers!

Your music has brough joy to both of us for many years now. Kel used to play "Betti-Cola" for some little kids she used to babysit. Now it resides in the "heavy rotation" section of my car disc wallet. Thanks for making beautiful music!
