THAUMATROPE

Cinematic is the word most often used to describe Minneapolis based Marah in the Mainsail's sound. Precise yet primitive jungle drums set the stage for the eclectic and powerful ensemble to sweep you away into their haunting world. Like oil and water, Durry's gravel voice alongside Mercades' crystal clarity form a stirring, yet beautiful contrast. All being thrusted foreword by aggressive percussion, growling bass, and soaring brass. Their lyrics paint a thrilling picture of monsters and ghosts, murderers and thieves, love and guilt, and everything in between.

Since debuting their full length album "Thaumatrope" in 2015, the band has gained considerable notoriety in the Midwest, and continues to grow their exceptionally loyal fanbase across the country. They later signed with Minneapolis local Last Triumph Records, and released Thaumatrope on 12” vinyl. Poised to launch into the rest of the US and beyond, Marah in the Mainsail continues to stand out from the pack, and bring their unique blend of musical influences to the alternative music scene

We're home! Thank you all for your support and keeping us on the road. We're thrilled to announce our album release show, October 7th at @amsterdambar651 . Between the kickstarter to make the album, and the gofundme to get us home when we were stranded, we owe all of you one hell of a show. We're working hard to live up to that and bring you the highest quality visual and audio performance we can. Amsterdam is an amazing venue in the twin cities, and we wanna pack it with friends, family, and fans for a one time special performance. With added visuals, staging, and all kinds of goodies to make this night one of a kind. Please join us in celebrating the completion of this record that you made possible. Pic: @lisajarema

We, sadly, had to say goodbye to our old van last night, but we were able to find a new one and are on our way back to MN! Thanks to everyone who helped out!

Goodnight sweet prince. Almost 4K funded of 6k to get a new van and get us home!! Gofundme link in the bio. We're so close!

Friends. We're stranded in Nashville. The van is dead, and we need your help to make it home. Follow the link in our bio for a gofundme page to help us out, as well as first listen to a brand new song off of the album. Almost all of our funds are invested in the new record. We cannot thank you enough for your support of our Kickstarter. We've crafted an album we're really really proud of and can't stand the thought of delaying the release or stoping shows for any reason. Please help us keep the ship afloat.
