The Maerlock

About Me

..

Described as ‘simply one of the most exciting and vibrant young bands to have emerged in recent years’, The Maerlock is at the forefront of a new generation of contemporary traditional music. Inventively melding influences from jazz, Latin, funk and other world musics with songs and tunes of the British Isles, the revolutionary and inimitable sound of The Maerlock is thrust into your ears by Salma Alam (vocals, flute), Catriona Price (fiddle), Paul-Isaac Franks (guitar), Olly Hamilton (piano) and Toby Kearney (percussion). The band’s long anticipated debut album ‘Sofa’ IS OUT NOW ON FELLSIDE RECORDINGS!
