of Mafia Track Suit and Mr. Hooper

First of all, we very much encourage you to check out this band, Mafia Track Suit.


Excellent rock band with awesome songs, (they recently put out an EP) our favorite is the zombie-fied "28 Days". We're quite partial to Zombie Rock, as it happens.
We're particularly excited right now as we will be performing with Mafia Track Suit on Thursday, July 7th at Schooner's in Roanoke. Music starts at 7pm. It's going to be a great night of Rock N'Roll, so bring along your dancing shoes- preferably a new pair.

Also, with the month of June falling prey to the advances of July, it is time for our new song!
This month: Our Nathaniel Hawthorne inspired ode to the pro's and con's of wearing semi-translucent garments, "Mr. Hooper."

Mr. Hooper by Marley Thorn

We've had this song with us for a while, we've played it in electric and acoustic shows, even recorded a version of it as a fulfillment for an English project. This recording was also the first of ours to feature the 12 string guitar ("Automated" was recorded after this one, actually).

We all know the old formula for 12 strings:

12 string guitar + treble = sunny.

Sit back, with or without your black veil on, and enjoy the audible sunshine.

of Soundclouds, Willy Wonka revelations, and Maniacs

Firstly, it should be mentioned that we now put all of our tracks, past, present and sometimes future, on our Soundcloud page. It allows you to stream all our stuff from the interwebs at any time. Ladies and gentlemen, if CNN's holographic reporter didn't convince you that we're living in the future, let this be the final word. Huzzah for living in the future!


Latest tracks by Marley Thorn

Some more varied news would be great, but alas, I can only report that we are still in the process of recording quite a bit of new material. Quite a bit. This of course is barely news as this is the same bit of music that we've been working on for a while. However it will soon all be revealed in a Willy Wonka type fashion as we emerge with a giant horde of musicality. Rest assured, it will involve less bizarre disappearances, and hopefully will be generally less sinister...




oh and by the way, we've got another song for this month, it's called "Maniac".
