Planet capable of sustaining life; Minshara is a high-energy, electronic pop rock band from Pennsylvania. Performing on Warped Tour, TV, and rotation on active rock radio, the undeniably infectious pop melodies, dance grooves, and rock progressions have spread like wildfire. Their releases, Oceans and iO, cannot be defined by any one label, influenced by any genre or style that inspires them. New material is set for release in 2017.
Somewhere in the spectrum of experimental indie-rock, there lies Marathon: a style-blending, genre-bending outfit from Central Pennsylvania dedicated to creating music which pushes the envelope. Technically proficient, Marathon boasts stellar guitar work both in layering and in lead, with drumming that is both non-intrusive and interesting—even unorthodox at times. Dual vocalists Zach and Erich strike a unique balance between a warm, whisper-like voice and a yearning, more tonal singing that soars achingly over the landscape below—a landscape which is colored with effects and programming, yet neither cluttered nor distracting. Atmospheric and ambient, yet poignant and raw at just the right moments, Marathon has a vastness of sound without pretension and with unparalleled maturity for such a young band.
Madison Ryan is a pop rock/punk musician out of the Central Pennsylvania area.
