Dubbed one of the country’s most compelling new acts, Scotland’s The Marches bring a captivating blend of raw emotion, vivid storytelling and undeniable musical prowess. Their upcoming EP, ‘Faultline’, explores a deeply personal journey through pressure, clarity and transformation, delivering unfiltered emotional honesty with every track.
Championed by BBC Introducing and Amazing Radio, The Marches have built an impressive following over the two years since they formed, earning widespread support and iconic headline slots at renowned venues including King Tut’s and SWG3.
Blending an electric fusion of sounds with a cinematic edge, The Marches deliver a sound that feels equally at home in the festival sunshine as it does on a mellow evening. Best enjoyed with a cold pint in hand, their music is made for those opening moments when the stage comes alive and the crowd begins to gather.
Their latest single, ‘The Habit’, showcases exactly why The Marches have been dubbed one of the country’s most compelling new acts. The build into the chorus adds a real anthemic lift, creating that sense of anticipation you want from a great track. When the chorus hits, the harmonies, paired with the gritty, rolling guitar rhythm, really hook you in. There’s also a subtle bluesy undertone running throughout, giving the track an extra layer of character and attitude.
With ‘Faultline’ on the horizon, The Marches look set to build on the momentum they’ve created so far. If ‘The Habit’ is anything to go by, the upcoming EP promises to capture everything that makes the band so compelling: big anthemic moments, gritty musicianship and a genuine sense of emotional depth. With their sound continuing to evolve and their reputation growing, The Marches are a band firmly on the rise - and one worth keeping an ear on.
‘The Habit’ will be released August 28th. You can listen to ‘The Habit’ here.
