Marsupious

About Me


Marsupious is an alternative progressive rock band formed in 2003 in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The core lineup of bassist Joe Michel, drummer Dave Barela, and vocalist Jeff Holland was solidified in 2005. With over ten years of playing together, Joe and Dave’s seamless harmony is complimented by Jeff’s daunting and thought provoking vocals. Bringing a whole new meaning to the term "power trio," Marsupious blends heavy tribal rhythm with textured melodies sans the traditional guitarist.
The band has just completed the recording of their much anticipated debut full length CD, "Stonebaby," due to be released in Spring 2007 by Fervid Recordings. A tour begins in the Summer of 2007.
Marsupious has drawn inspiration from great bands the likes of Pink Floyd, Tool, Primus, The Melvins, and Mike Patton.
Aside from everything you’ve just read we are very simply three friends who came together trying to do things a little different. My bandmates (Joe and Dave) are my biggest influences. They constantly challenge my creative boundaries. This is a relatively new band and the response we’ve received from those who have heard us has been truly wonderful. We do what we do out of love (for music, for ourselves, and for each other). Hopefully we can share it with as many of you as possible in the near future. We look forward to getting on the road and making as many new friends as possible. Once again THANK YOU! HOPE TO SEE YOU SOON!!!

"Battling Bands"

I'm not sure who came up with this idea, however, I am sure that I'm not to fond of it. These so called "Battle of the bands" are usually just a ploy to get as many people together as possible to sell...
