About Me

THE BEAT MARAS!
The Beat Màras came to life through meeting friends of friends.
Playing thier first live set at Molly Malones in 2006, the band have gone on to play various London venues such as The Old Blue last, Rhythm Factory, 12 Bar Club and the Barfly.
After rehearsing all over the south from friends Barns to Get Cape, Wear Cape, Fly studios. The maras can now be found either in their squat rehearsal room off off Brick lane or in their studio in Hitchin.
Described as sounding something between the BRMC meets the Doors round the Babyshambles House... their sound continues to impress...
