Marsicans: Momentum
Marsicans are an emerging indie band from Leeds whose driving, harmony-laden sound is quickly gaining notoriety alongside their reputation for exciting live shows. The quartet’s current line-up, three schoolmates and a friend from Leeds’ music scene, started sampling old synths, distorting guitars and writing songs together in 2014. In the last 12 months, Marsicans have supported Minnesota’s Hippo Campus on tour in the UK, sold out their own headline dates, played their first European shows and saw their debut performance at Glastonbury included in the BBC’s festival highlights reel.
Marsicans’ most recent single “Friends” was showcased by BBC Introducing’s Huw Stephens, then added to Radio 1’s weekly playlist after being tipped on Twitter by Coldplay. It’s received further support from BBC 6Music and Radio X as well as featuring on ‘Hot New Bands’, ‘The Indie List’ and other influential Spotify playlists in the UK, Europe and Japan.
Marsicans join label-mates Natives on a 17-date UK tour in May and June before hitting festivals in July and August. Further touring and releases on LAB Records are planned for the rest of 2017.
