Description
The Marsh Family, the unique musical group (and real-life family) who first became global viral sensations six years ago at the start of the pandemic, announce the release of their debut album Hollow Chapters. An album with reflection, resilience, journey, and elemental connections at its core, Hollow Chapters is a collection of original songs written and performed by the Marsh Family - Dad (Ben, 49), Mum (Danielle, 48), sons Alfie (19) and Tom (18), and daughters Ella (16) and Tess (14). Recently featured in The Observer, the multi-instrumentalist family group of six from Kent have a significant international online following passionate about their mix of folk-pop harmonies, uplifting messages, authentic imperfections, and sense of connection and heart.
Hollow Chapters ranges across genres (from acoustic protest songs to funk and reggae rock), but has a vintage organic style, rooted in natural analogies, ideas of journey and lifecycle, and epic and inspirational themes. It promises to move people emotionally, whether through ballads about departed loved ones or stirring tracks designed to forge collective action and hope. The songs tell stories using the different voices of family members, drawing inspiration from poetry, landscape, and artefacts.
Hollow Chapters blends the spirit and heart of folk with the energy and dynamism of pop - featuring the British family's trademark vocal harmonies and characterful performances. Having hoarded their own original writing for over a year, while sharing many hilarious viral parodies, the Marsh Family now deliver sonic stories inspired by Greek mythology ('Hollow Chapters'), their experiences of anger ('A New Way'), grief, and loss ('You Were Gone'), nostalgia for traditions ('The Falconer') and objects ('Artefact'), and heroes of the modern age such as the songs memorialising the courage of Russian activist Alexei Navalny ('Sit for the Road') or the protestors in Iran ('Zan Zendegi Azadi'). T
hough the pieces are refracted by their different lenses as teenagers or parents in a world under strain, they all return to themes of solidarity and support ('Fingertips') - perhaps most evocatively brought out in their bigger orchestral builds ('Poor Wayfaring Stranger').
