Mars FM
Born in the high desert of Southwest Colorado, Portland based indie folk rock trio Mars FM radiates a warmth reminiscent of their red dirt home. Their ‘familial’ harmonies, dreamy pedal steel, and playful, anything goes spirit coalesce into a heart opening live experience that speaks to multiple generations.
Mars FM’s most recent release, Under Your Branches, has a softer, more reflective tone than their previous album. Zack and Zoe, along with multi-instrumentalist Eli Wheeler, poured themselves into ten deeply heart-centered songs over the course of ten days following the loss of Zoe’s grandparents. They recorded the album live aside from vocals, which were recorded in the wee hours of morning in a closet dimly lit by salt lamps and candles. It is an album of grief, of love, of mystery, and of acceptance.
