The Marratimes

Probably the best band in the world........

About Me

Hailing from all over the U.K, The Marratimes music contain's an eclectic mix of styles, never afraid to wear their influences as lapel badges, It sweep's round Indie, touches Americana, skirt's round folk, fies between the legs of rock and will positivley flee from death metal. Thats pretty much it. Thankyou for looking........ The Marratimes - Hooked
