Biography
MarsupiaL's special blend of progressive rock, jam-band, southern roots and jazz transcends any preconceived classification. Mick Skidmore of Relix Magazine explains, “The band operates as a tight-knit family and has a common philosophy of crossing all available musical boundaries. In the past five years, this quartet has created a buzz around the southeast U.S. with an eclectic vision that melds an improv-heavy mix of jazz-rock and progressive rock with superior melodic content". Now, with the eminent release of MarsupiaL's fourth CD, 'Genus Thylacinus’, on March 24, 2009 the band is being touted as "One of the nation's brightest stars in the prog-rock scene."
"In addition to making a name for itself through powerful live shows, MarsupiaL is quickly earning a reputation as one of the most thoughtful recording artists in the prog-rock field, earning comparisons to national acts such as Umphrey's McGee," says the Mountain Times. The band's 2006 release 'Curtains' garnered rave reviews worldwide from critics and fans alike, and quickly became a favorite on WNCW's 'Arc Overnight' program. This follows the success of 'Moby Fleck', an album that landed in the top 20 regional albums for the year 2006.
REVIEWS:
One of the hardest working and certainly most talented bands swimming in the crowded and competitive Asheville music pool, MarsupiaL is a nimble crew achieving (and deserving) to explode onto the southern jam seas.
A highly effective prog ..n' rock dual-guitar attack, MarsupiaL has tightened and Seasoned it's epic rock the old fashioned way: Via metric tons of live gigs and touring over the last three years-plus. Indeed, the practice has paid off, as these guys exhibit a penchant for tight, directed epic jamming with a purpose. Stuart Gaines ~ Honest Tune Magazine
MarsupiaL creates a combination of hook-laden rock and roll to tightly composed yet loosely flowing jams.
The songs that expand your mind on disc possess your synaptic functions entirely when being interpreted live. From the opening jam of the lush Why Are These Pillows Following Ye, off of their debut dancing about architecture, through to the hour-long, 5 song second set MarsupiaL sets the music blazing. Time signatures change and combine with a stunning rapidity, solos flare and die and songs become moving targets. Dave Terpeny ~ Kyndmusic.com
