When asked by Graeme Thompson of The Word Magazine... Q : What bands should we be listening to? A : "Another band I saw the other day are Marner Brown - They are really good. They had a bit of a Led Zep / Guns n Roses type thing" .” - Ronnie Wood (Jan 2008)
"Aaron A Grimes is currently THE best young guitarist in the UK, & Marner Brown are possibly the best support we've ever had" - Steve Cradock, Ocean Colour Scene (Jan 2008)
Marner Brown are one of the best new rock bands I have ever seen…….they have the presence, dynamic and excitement far-reaching their tender years and great songs to match their outstanding image………they will go far and I’m proud to be involved from the beginning.”Rod MacSween (Head of ITB)
Formed in 2004, Marner Brown are the next phase of Twickenham’s Rock and Roll Legacy. Fiachra Kerrigan (Lead Vocals, Rhythm Guitar), Aaron A Grimes (Lead Guitar), Jacob Hollebon (Bass Guitar), John Wildgoose (Keyboards, Backing Vocals) and Coz Kerrigan (Drums) are making music exciting, energetic and raw again. Over the past three years they have played with and supported some great acts. In 2006 alone they were on a UK tour with The Feeling, supported Whitesnake (Hammersmith Apollo, May) and The Towers of London (ULU and 100 Club) as well as headlining the T4 Popworld Promotes Tour (Madame JoJos). 2007 has been fantastic for the guys. They supported Babyshambles in January, have a nationwide tour planned for Autumn 07 and won VIRGIN XTREME Best Indie Band at the INDY awards in May out of 40,000 live acts.
"This lot surprised us recently in London and we were really impressed by the way they sound. They're a bit Led Zep, a bit Stonesey, a bit Supergrass. They look good too; nice shoes, nice hair, nice attitude, a bit like Rod Stewart (circa1973) and, of course, we love a bit of Rod."Dirk Tourette (Towers of London, NME Recommender)
It is apparent almost immediately that these guys are destined for greatness. They are an extremely tight outfit, both musically and visually. With such influences as: Led Zeppelin; The Rolling Stones; Jimi Hendrix; The Faces; Supergrass; The Stone Roses and Kula Shaker, Marner Brown have a lot to live up to. However, with these five collaborating to produce the Marner sound, they’re more than capable. John Wildgoose is an accomplished keyboard player whose pitch perfect ear makes him an invaluable member of the group and his harmonies add a strong flavour to the bands sound. Jacob Hollebon and Coz Kerrigan (ex Larrikin Love), provide a tight and energetic rhythm section. Both accomplished musicians in their own right, they are the backbone of the group. To describe Aaron A Grimes as simply a guitarist would be doing him a great injustice, he is one of the brightest young stars emerging from the UK music scene. Both he and Fiachra are all round musicians. With a voice likened to Rod Stewart and an amazing talent for song writing, Fiachra Kerrigan is a future superstar fronting one of the future great rock and roll bands!
“Fiachra Kerrigan's distinct gravelly vocals, backed up by some seriously hot rock guitar playing are putting Marner Brown leaps and bounds ahead of the rest.”Gary Crowley; BBC London Calling

After New York, you are supposed to come to Japan, aren't you?
Yuria and I will be a little bit close to you in September. So you could hear me calling your name, "Fiachra!!!!" It must reverberate through the hills in Norway.
Actually, I wish I could have the time to go to London!!!
rapid time with yiz at knockanstockan on sat night. i found a sweet wooden peg in the campsite that said "i was this close enough to you" on one side and "100% pass it on" on the other side. i take it this was the work of one of ye. going to london at some point this month so i'll be in touch. peace, take care Rachel xxx
awight wankas...no smoke arses blowin..I'm luvin broken bones...your tune that is and not a sentiment to condone violence!! It has a good edge. A bientot.
I wonder how many times I’ve listened to the new song, Broken bones! Sadly I can’t still catch everything Fiachra is singing. I’d like to know the lyrics.
Anyway, your songs make me feel my life is not so bad.
