About Me

Far from the glaring searchlights of the musical intelligentsia, the seed of a daring pop combo lay dormant for decades. Pushed aside in favor of this fresh candy or that stomping flavor of the month, eventually that seed would make its way to the front of the cupboard where light and love worked their magic. Within the confines of this stereo-scopic germination resides the debut album of The Marmalade Army. Allow yourself a feast upon their harvest. Herb Fountainbleu – Sonic Rocks Magazine.Life is a plum pie ... so get your thumb in there! - Solomon Thistle/The Marmalade Army is a quartet of clever tunesmiths with a talent for writing great songs with swirly hooks. Is it 1967 or 2008? It doesn’t matter, the music’s good. Turn on the Hi Fi, put on the headphones, close your eyes and lay back in your bean bag chair. You’ve waited a long time for this type of band to come along again. If you were ever hopeful that music was supposed to evolve into something soulful, hip and fun, then this is the music for you. This is a gift from the Marmalade Army to You! Please enjoy Johnny Cake and Moon Pies.I edited my profile with Thomas’ Myspace Editor V4.4I edited my profile with Thomas’ Myspace Editor V4.4I edited my profile with Thomas’ Myspace Editor V4.4
