Marble Waves is an Amsterdam and Utrecht based folk band whose style is heavily influenced by Americana, indie, and pop. Their music is known for its poetic lyrics, multiple vocals, and ethereal guitar work.
On 29 September 2023 Marble Waves released the full-length album called ‘Endless Drifting’. The poetic lyrics, dreamy guitars and harmonic vocals characteristic of the band’s earlier work find their way back to this new album, this time with some more pop influences. At the same time, the new music has a darker side to it, without losing sight of the band’s original acoustic vibe.
‘Endless Drifting’ was produced by Jasper Ras. The artwork was created by Lynn Gommans. The special release show was on October 1, 2023 at Cinetol, Amsterdam. In the Fall of 2023, the band will additionally perform live at TivoliVredenburg in Utrecht, the Verkadefabriek in Den Bosch and at some other venues.
Marble Waves’ debut EP, released during the pandemic in 2020, was recommended as album tip by magazine ‘De Bassist’. It was described as an EP with “six beautiful songs” whose sound was reminiscent of “well-known female- fronted folk bands from the 1970s.” The songs from this EP were played on Dutch and Brazilian national radio. In December 2020, singer Eveline Armina won the final episode of the Dutch tv program ‘I Can See Your Voice’, where she sang a duet with the nationally famous Emma Heesters. In October 2022, the band played at the AFAS Live Amsterdam as the Counting Crows’ after show.
The folkband consists of singer/songwriter Eveline Armina Haverlag, guitarists Frank Geerlings and Merel van ‘t Hooft, bass player Amé Staal and drummer Rutger Louwerse.
