Derbyshire’s Marseille are quickly turning heads, and their latest single, History, is poised to make waves in the indie rock scene. Despite the band being just a group of 19-year-olds, their sound is a bold fusion of indie rock, shoegaze, and Brit-pop nostalgia, and History is the perfect showcase of their promise.
The track is an anthem for anyone who’s ever dared to dream big, and it’s clear from the first notes that Marseille aren’t just another group of up-and-comers – they’re a band with a message. Produced by Michael Smith, known for his work with Wolf Alice, History pulses with energy, marrying driving guitars with powerful, soaring vocals. As lead singer Will Brown puts it, the song is a “love letter to the dreams we all had as children,” and it’s impossible not to feel that sense of youthful ambition in every chord.
