“Mega… loving the sound of this!”- Nathan Shepherd, BBC 6 Music.

Marseille mark their return with their best work yet ‘History’. A heartfelt, ambitious, and a downright ballsy single which will be sure to be the focal point of any indie-rock playlist you have this year. The track has already secured airplay on BBC 6 Music’s ‘Indie Forever’ show as their ‘Indie-pendence Play’ and received praise from highly regarded music tastemakers The Line Of Best Fit as the band set to win over legions of new fans with this new tune.

Hailing from the depths of northern Derbyshire, thefive-piece indie rock/shoegaze band have been making waves in the UK music scene, reviving a scene which never really died. At an average age of just 19, the group—featuring Will Brown (vocals), Joe Labram (lead guitar), Lennon Hall (guitar), Will Sabey (bass), and Tom Spray (drums) have already completed a successful UK tour, selling out 150-250 capacity venues.

Marseille have been busy laying down the foundations for an eye catching 2025 after 2 years of grafting, playing encapsulating shows and honing their sound. With the Oasis reunion this year and a new wave of Brit-pop set to sweep the country, it’s an exciting time for Marseille who carry a zero-fucks given swagger with waves of psych, groove and emotion moving through their tracks, making sure the audience never has a moment to lose interest.

‘History’ is a track that really tugs at the heartstrings, a song that is a love letter to the dreams we all had as children, being remembered as a legend of your era. But all the while having that big beat in your face swagger that Marseille naturally carries around wherever they go. A gorgeously well-crafted song which is most excellently brought to life by Wolf Alice’s producer Michael Smith.

On the track, singer Will Brown said, “History is a simple song which applies to any young person with big aspirations. It’s probably the most personal to us as a collective as we fit that criterion. We are 5 young lads that want our legacy to be remembered, and that is one of the most special things that anyone can ever write about.”

Over 2024 Marseille played some very notable shows such as the Quarry Stage at YNOT in front of 4,000 people, Isle Of Wight festival, Manchester Academy 2. They also supported The Twang at Leicester Academy and supported The Bluetones in Lancaster at the Kanteena.

The band have also received backing from clothing brand Pretty Green which is something both parties plan to build on in 2025.

‘History’ comes out on January the 24^th 2025 on Echo Bass Records across all major streaming platforms & CD, with a 7” vinyl release to follow on 14^th March.
