What people are saying about Marah:

“Marah turned sky-high expectation into down-to-earth rock reality that made your head bang and your heart pump. Clearly the band…doesn’t need a star to hitch its wagon to. The music was loose, updating the classic rock sonics of vintage Stones with hints of Rockpile and E Street echoes. Marah’s chops are solid, but what separates these guys…is their united-we-stand intimacy…their rock anthems are like skyrockets…The same could be said of Marah itself. It’s just a rumor, but this little band from Philly is gonna be huge…Springsteen might show up for a gig, but if he doesn’t, it doesn’t matter.” - Dan Aquilante, New York Post

“Their performances are raucous, ramshackle, soulful and utterly committed to the magical notion that rock is a vehicle for a higher power…Last week, at Dingwalls, they played one of the most exciting shows I have witnessed in a life of gig going…here was melody, emotion, exuberance, passion. To see them live is to understand: Marah have got the music…the Bielanko brothers are among the most gifted and intelligent young songwriters to have emerged from America in recent years” – Neil McCormick, The Daily Telegraph
